This is what happens when your third (or fourth) option, has face-of-the-franchise Talent

Kristaps Porzingis delivered a go-to guy performance in his historic Boston Celtics debut (30 points, 8 rebounds, four blocked shots) in helping Boston put away a pesky Knicks team, 108-104.

Kristaps Porzingis is a Boston Celtic now.

So those days of being the go-to guy or the man next to the go-to guy, are over.

This is Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown’s team.

At best, he’s option number three and even that’s debatable with Jrue Holiday on board.

But here’s the thing about a team like the Boston Celtics which is top-heavy when it comes to talent.

On any given night, the deck of talent head coach Joe Mazzulla has can be shuffled, resulting in the expected pecking order doing anything but going along with the script.

It was only fitting that would be the case on opening night when it was Porzingis, more than any other Celtics player, coming through to deliver the win.
