Celtics' Kristaps Porzingis: Good to go for training camp
Celtics president of basketball operations Brad Stevens said Tuesday that Porzingis (foot) is completely healthy ahead of training camp, Gary Washburn of the Boston Globe reports.
Porzingis sat out the 2023 FIBA World Cup due to plantar fasciitis, but as expected, he's good to go for his first training camp with the Celtics. "Kristaps has been running up and down the court the last few days," Stevens said. "I thought the progression that his trainers [in Latvia], our trainers here and everybody came up with to get him back so that he could avoid anything lingering was key." The new-look Celtics will presumably have some kinks to work out in 2023-24, but Porzingis, whose fantasy value likely takes a hit with the move, brings a new dimension to a team with championship aspirations.

Celtics' Kristaps Porzingis: Expected to be ready for camp
The Celtics announced Wednesday that Porzingis (foot) will require a 4-to-6 week rehab program but is expected to be ready for the start of training camp.
Porzingis announced Tuesday that he'll sit out the FIBA World Cup this month while recovering from plantar fasciitis in his right foot, and he'll be on the mend for several more weeks beyond the conclusion of the tournament. He should be back to full health in time for the start of the regular season, but the 28-year-old has dealt with numerous injuries in recent years, so an offseason setback is somewhat concerning. Despite his health issues, Porzingis has topped 20 points per contest in each of the last four seasons, averaging 21.0 points, 8.7 rebounds and 2.1 assists in 31.1 minutes per game during that time.

Celtics' Kristaps Porzingis: Sitting out World Cup due to injury
Porzingis announced Tuesday via his personal Twitter account that he won't participate for the Latvian national team in this month's FIBA World Cup due to a foot injury.
Porzingis relayed that he's been recovering for several weeks from plantar fasciitis in his foot. He said that the decision to sit out the FIBA World Cup was made by the national team's medical and coaching staffs, as well as the Celtics' brass. Porzingis was traded to Boston this offseason and quickly signed a two-year, $60 million extension, so as long as he's available for the start of training camp, the versatile veteran figures to play a major role for the Celtics in 2023-24. However, health has been a concern throughout his career.

Celtics' Kristaps Porzingis: Agrees on extension with Boston
The Celtics signed Porzingis to a two-year, $60 million extension Friday, Chris Haynes of Turner Sports reports.
Porzingis was traded from Washington to Boston earlier this offseason. After exercising his player option for 2023-24, he is now tied to the franchise for three seasons. Porzingis had a career year in 2022-23, averaging 23.2 points, 8.4 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 1.6 blocks in 32.6 minutes across 65 games on 49.8/38.5/85.1 shooting splits. While fantasy managers should expect a slight drop in his scoring due to playing alongside Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown, the Latvian big man should be a key cog for a contending Boston team.
