What’s going on with the rumored Kristaps Porzingis foot injury?

[ad_1]

German media outlet Hamburger Abendblatt’s Rupert Fabig wrote there were “growing concerns” regarding star Boston Celtics big man Kristaps Porzingis’ ability to play for the Latvian National Team in 2023 FIBA World Cup play due to an unspecified foot injury Wednesday, making Boston fans around the world nervous.

However, Latvia refuted Fabig’s report, asserting Porzingis is participating in training and preparations for the World Cup. The Latvian team emphasized that both individual player preparation plans and the team’s training process are underway. While the contradictory reports have caused uncertainty, it’s possible that Porzingis is dealing with a minor ailment, and there might be a cautious approach taken by both the Celtics and Latvia to avoid exacerbating anything.

Porzingis’ injury history has led to speculation about whether it’s a preventive measure to ensure his long-term well-being, such as we heard on a recent episode of the “NBA Front Office” podcast.
