Porzingis (heel) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Bulls, Taylor Snow of the Celtics' official site reports. 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.

Porzingis (heel) participated in Wednesday's practice, Jay King of The Athletic reports. 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.

Porzingis didn't return to Sunday's 112-98 win over the Wizards after exiting in the second quarter with right heel pain. 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.

Porzingis is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Wizards due to right heel pain, Jay King of The Athletic reports. 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.

Porzingis logged 19 points (8-18 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 1-2 FT), eight rebounds, two assists, two blocks and one steal over 30 minutes during Thursday's 123-99 win over Detroit. It wasn't the most efficient night from downtown for Porzingis, but he filled the box score and nearly secured a double-double for a Celtics team that was without superstar Jayson Tatum (knee) on Thursday. In seven appearances with Tatum sidelined dating back to last season, Porzingis is now averaging 19.9 points, 7.6 rebounds, 2.4 assists, 1.1 steals, 3.0 blocks and 2.4 three-pointers per game If Tatum remains unavailable for Sunday's contest against a Wizards club giving up the most points per game (123.8) in the league this year, Porzingis will likely experience an uptick in usage and handle a more pronounced role on offense for Boston once again.
