Torrey Craig will start in place of Porzingis.

After recently signing with Boston, he is averaging 3.0 points, 1.0 rebounds and 1.0 assists per contest in two games.

Via Jared Weiss of The Athletic: "The Celtics are starting new signing Torrey Craig at center tonight, as Kristaps Porziņģis is now doubtful to play due to illness. Porziņģis looked fine during his pregame warmup but is a surprise scratch."
