Fantasy Impact:
Porzingis amazingly played two additional games in the Mavs first-round series against the Clippers after tearing his meniscus in Game 1. Through three games of the first-round, Porzingis averaged 23.7 points and 8.7 rebounds in 31.3 minutes per game while shooting 52.5 percent (21-40 FGs) from the field, and 52.9 percent (9-17 3PT) from beyond the arc. There is no timetable for his return, and with the start of the 2020-2021 season still TBD, Porzingis may have some additional time to rehab before the official start of training camp next season.
