Season-high 36 minutes Thursday
Porzingis provided 20 points (7-17 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 4-4 FT), eight rebounds and three blocks over 36 minutes during Thursday's 117-108 loss to the Bulls.
Analysis
Porzingis made his usual impact on the boards and in the scoring column while also blocking a game-high three shots, but it wasn't his best night shooting the ball. The All-Star big man is now averaging an efficient 19.1 points, 7.1 rebounds, 1.6 assists, 1.5 blocks, 0.8 steals and 2.1 three-pointers in 27.5 minutes per game through eight appearances so far this year. Perhaps Thursday's most important takeaway is that Porzingis played a season-high 36 minutes, which is an encouraging sign for the Celtics and fantasy managers as the center becomes further removed from offseason foot surgery this past summer.

Will suit up Thursday
Porzingis (heel) is available for Thursday's game against the Bulls, Justin Turpin of WEEI.com reports.
Analysis
The Celtics will receive a huge boost to their frontcourt for this game against Chicago since both Porzingis and Al Horford will be available. Porzingis has been limited to just seven appearances this season, but he's averaging 19.0 points, 7.0 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 1.3 blocks across 26.3 minutes per game.

Questionable for Thursday
Porzingis (heel) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Bulls, Taylor Snow of the Celtics' official site reports.
Analysis
The questionable tag was expected after Porzingis participated in Wednesday's practice -- the Celtics want to see how his heel injury responds Thursday morning before a decision is made. Porzingis suffered the injury during Sunday's 112-98 win over the Wizards, but it was always believed to be a day-to-day issue.

Goes through practice
Porzingis (heel) participated in Wednesday's practice, Jay King of The Athletic reports.
Analysis
Coach Joe Mazulla said Porzingis looked good and was moving around well, and that bodes well for his status against the Bulls on Thursday. The Celtics want to see how his body responds to the practice, so fantasy managers could expect a potential questionable tag on the upcoming injury report.

Leaves early with heel injury
Porzingis didn't return to Sunday's 112-98 win over the Wizards after exiting in the second quarter with right heel pain.
Analysis
Porzingis turned in 11 points (5-6 FG, 1-2 3Pt), two rebounds and two assists in 11 minutes before leaving the contest. The Celtics didn't provide an update on Porzingis' status following the game, but it's worth noting that the big man's heel injury isn't an aggravation of the left foot/ankle that required offseason surgery and cost him the first 17 games of the season. For now, Porzingis can be viewed as day-to-day leading up to the Celtics' next game Thursday versus the Bulls.

Questionable to return Sunday
Porzingis is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Wizards due to right heel pain, Jay King of The Athletic reports.
Analysis
Porzingis exited for the locker room during Sunday's contest and has been deemed questionable to return. If he is ultimately unable to return, Luke Kornet would likely see more minutes.
