Brad Stevens Gives Update On Kristaps Porzingis’ Health
For several years now, the Boston Celtics have been a title contender though they haven’t been worldly-wise to quite get over the hump.
Following an visitation in the 2022 NBA Finals, the Celtics managed to make it to the Eastern Conference Finals this past postseason but lost to the Miami Heat in seven games.
The disappointing end to their season led Boston to swing a blockbuster deal in the summer where they shipped out Marcus Smart and brought in Kristaps Porzingis.
Porzingis had a resurgent year with the Washington Wizards, looking like the All-Star he once was when he was still with the New York Knicks.
With Porzingis on board, the Celtics have a true stretch-five who can moreover create his own shot when given the opportunity.
However, the Latvia native has been dealing with plantar fasciitis over the offseason though Brad Stevens provided a positive update via Jones & Mego with Arcand.
“Kristaps seems to be in a really good place, like, he is focused on what matters…He’s coming here to do his part and help us win,” Stevens said.

Boston fans have been rightfully concerned with Porzingis’ current restiveness given his wide-stretching injury history, though Stevens doesn’t seem panicked well-nigh it.
Unlike other injuries, plantar fasciitis can be powerfully managed over the undertow of the regular season which ways there should be little doubt well-nigh Porzingis’ availability to start the year.
When healthy, Porzingis is a real offensive threat and he should be worldly-wise to help a Boston team that is once then aiming for a championship.
