Boston: So, the other day, Kristaps Porzingis was seen limping off the court, and you could just feel the panic among Celtics fans. But don’t worry, Coach Joe Mazzulla has some good news.
He gave an update on Porzingis, who had to leave the game against the Wizards because of some right heel pain. Mazzulla said Porzingis is doing better and even got some shots up in practice. Sounds promising, right?
He reassured everyone that this injury isn’t related to the leg issue that kept Porzingis out earlier in the season. That’s a relief! Mazzulla made it clear that this is a different situation.
Porzingis himself seemed pretty chill about it. He mentioned it was more of a precaution and didn’t think it was anything serious. He felt a bit of sensitivity during the game, so they decided to pull him out.
With the Celtics not playing again until Thursday against the Bulls, there’s a good chance he’ll be ready to go. He’s been averaging 19 points and 7 rebounds since he came back, so fans are definitely hoping to see him on the court soon.
