Brad Stevens provides update on Malcolm Brogdon and Kristaps Porzingis

Is it that Malcolm Brogdonvictim of a torn elbow ligament, and Kristaps Porzingis, injured in the foot, will be present Tuesday for the resumption of training in Boston. The first has not spoken to the press since the aborted transfer to the Clippers, while the second stopped his preparation for the World Cup to receive treatment.

“Everyone is in Boston, everyone is healthy. Knock on wood » said Brad Stevens Boston Globe. “If everyone stays like this until the end of the week, we should be at full strength next Tuesday when we start training. This makes us very satisfied.”

Brogdon “has the right to be disappointed”

For the moment, we have not seen any images of Brogdon, but on the other hand, on Tuesday, Kristaps Porzingis appeared in training gear. He didn’t seem at all bothered by his movements.

“In recent days, Kristaps has been doing off-road exercises”Stevens said. “What everyone put in place for him, in Latvia and here, so that he avoids hanging around was a key element. I spoke to him on the phone, and he told me he felt good. »

For Brogdon, the challenge is twofold: it is a question of taking stock of his injury, but also of his state of mind after learning that it is transferable. “He has every right to be disappointed” recognizes the president of the Celtics. “But he is a real professional and we have had several discussions. He can’t wait to get back on track and so can we.”
