BOSTON — Jaylen Brown described it as “scary” when Kristaps Porzingis is that hot from 3-point land. Porzingis was at his best Wednesday in the Celtics' blowout win over the Bulls, putting up 26 points in the first half alone.

After Kristaps Porzingis' bizarre 'meat' statement, he had to go on social media and explain himself the next day.

The defending NBA champion Boston Celtics have been inconsistent recently, but their veteran center has been on a roll. Kristaps Porzingis will aim to continue his strong play when Boston opens a three-game road trip with a visit to the New Orleans Pelicans on Friday night.
