Celtics Predicted to Make Kristaps Porzingis Trade After Loss to Knicks
After losing to the New York Knicks, the Boston Celtics will enter the offseason deciding what to do with some of their players. One of them includes Kristaps Porzingis. Porzingis has made it clear how much he loves it in Boston, but that doesn't negate the fact that he is expensive to keep around. Despite Porzingis' contributions to their title in 2024, he may be on a new team this offseason. Advertisement NBA Insider Marc Stein reported on The Stein Line that Porzingis is the most likely player on the team to be traded this summer. However, it doesn't have as much to do with what he can do on the court as what he can do for a trade partner's payroll.

Stein noted Porzingis' health struggles, which may play a role in his appeal as a trade target. "Porziņģis, though, managed to exceed 20 minutes in only one of the Celtics' games in the New York series because of a perplexing energy-sapping illness that has plagued him since March," Stein wrote. The Celtics are projected to cross the NBA's second tax apron for the third consecutive season, which they may want to avoid because it would result in frozen draft assets and an inability to aggregate contracts in trades. Advertisement Boston will be tasked with trading players like Porzingis to get under the apron while maintaining their championship-caliber roster.

Rybakina through to French Open fourth round as Ostapenko derails
PARIS, May 30 (Reuters) - Kazakh Elena Rybakina's claycourt form showed no sign of dipping as she brushed aside former champion Jelena Ostapenko 6-2 6-2 in a duel of heavy hitters to reach the fourth round of the French Open on Friday. The 12th-seeded Rybakina, who came to Roland Garros fresh from her Strasbourg Open run to the title, was not impressed by Ostapenko's flurry of missiles as she prevailed with a forehand winner down the line on the first match point. "The fast conditions make it difficult to control the ball but it definitely helps for the serve," said Rybakina. "I had some ups and downs but happy with the way it went today." Latvia's Ostapenko, who also had shown good form on clay this season, beating Iga Swiatek and Aryna Sabalenka to win the Stuttgart Open last month, played her usual roll-the-dice tennis but did not get lucky. The 2017 Roland Garros winner served three aces but eight double faults while her 14 winners could not make up for a staggering 22 unforced errors. Rybakina, who also peppered the court with a high number of unforced errors, will next face four-time champion Iga Swiatek of Poland.
