The Celtics extended the series with a blowout victory, but they got just 1 point and one rebound from their starting center.

"The Celtics have a clean injury list outside of Jayson Tatum," Weiss wrote. "No more designation for Sam Hauser, who returned from his ankle sprain, and none for Kristaps Porziņģis, who was benched for the second half last night due to his illness, but was available in an emergency."

Kristaps Porzingis was benched for the second half of Wednesday's Game 5 win over the Knicks due to his lingering illness.
