Up to a month and a half of absence for Kristaps Porzingis

After the formalization of his package by himself and his federation, the Celtics reacted to the announcement of the injury of Kristaps Porzingis, who suffers from plantar fasciitis. In a brief press release, the Boston franchise writes that its summer recruit will undergo a four to six week care program. This should allow him to be authorized to participate in the “training camp”, which will begin the first week of October.

In his message posted on social networks, Porzingis had indicated that his decision “College was taken by both the medical staff and the staff of the national team, as well as by the Celtics, with the advice to continue the recovery process”.

According to The Athletic, the Celtics are absolutely not concerned about this injury. It’s the same one that bothered Joel Embiid at the start of last season, without preventing him from playing.
