Kristaps Porzingis on Celtics adding himself and Jrue Holiday: “We have to give a lot of credit to our front office for putting this kind of team together. When the opportunity presented for me, I said this is going to work 100%. We’re going to figure it out sooner or later.” pic.twitter.com/p2ePZd67xA – 12:19 AM

Porzingis comes out of the timeout just planted in the lane and when Scott Foster calls defensive three seconds on him, you can see Foster just throwing his hands up like “what are you doing bro” – 9:26 PM

Mazzulla motioning to White & Hauser about what looked like something spacing-related after that White-Porzingis P&R drew free throws. Seeing more White setting up Porzingis since the break. – 8:57 PM

Brunson looks so happy to be seeing drop, even with Porzingis trying to creep higher to get up to him. #Celtics going double big into the 2nd rotation. – 8:54 PM

Michael Scotto: Kristaps Porzingis had high praise for Celtics teammates Jayson Tatum and Jrue Holiday. “JT, he deserves a lot of credit because he can say F it. I want to score 30 every night. I want to get MVP. But he’s not doing that. I think people are overlooking that. You have to give him… pic.twitter.com/JWJFNHg80o -via Twitter @MikeAScotto / February 25, 2024
Tim Bontemps: Final: Celtics 116, Knicks 102 Boston has won 8 in a row, 10 of 11 and 13 of 15 behind 30 points from Jaylen Brown and 22-4-4 from Kristaps Porzingis. The Celtics host Philly Tuesday. Jalen Brunson had 34 and 9 for New York, which hosts Detroit Monday & New Orleans Tuesday. -via Twitter @TimBontemps / February 24, 2024
Kevin O’Connor: Kristaps Porzingis is shooting 69.4% from the post this season for Boston. That ranks first of the NBA players with at least 2 post ups per game, via @nbastats . The Celtics often use KP to attack mismatches, making it a potent half court scoring weapon whether he’s using power moves or shooting over the top. There will come times in the postseason Boston needs huge performances out of Porzingis, and his regular season production is showing he can come through. pic.twitter.com/dmeOTt4xs8 -via Twitter @KevinOConnorNBA / February 24, 2024
