Speaking of suiting up, I feel like nowadays if players are in uniform they will play and no one has a player in uniform with the intent of not playing him unless he's really needed. With the Celtics up 3-0 in the NBA Finals, one could argue that no matter how large a lead the Mavs potentially build up in Game 4, Head Coach Joe Mazzulla wouldn't insert him into the game, if the plan was to not use him that specific night.
My guess here is the Celtics will rest Porzingis another game and if there's a Game 5, he would return then.
