Joe Mazzulla didn’t rule out Kristaps Porzingis when asked about his potential return. He was on the court again yesterday but didn’t practice. C’s have two off days this weekend after tonight. Porzingis previously said he’s on track to return in roughly a week. – 6:00 PM

Kristaps Porzingis back on the stationary bike at practice wearing a sleeve on his left calf. He did some light shooting pregame on Tuesday and said he remains on track to return around 1 week after the injury. pic.twitter.com/zyeD3DgWFC – 12:39 PM

Al Horford isn’t the offensive player Kristaps Porzingis is, but he’s a much better passer and really opening up the short roll, handoff and inside-out passing attack for the #Celtics, who already have 15 assists on 19 makes. – 8:17 PM

Kristaps Porzingis said the MRI he got showed a low-level calf strain. But otherwise, it’s not anything serious and he’s already feeling better since hurting it last week against the Magic. ”

More on this storyline
What was your reaction when Jrue Holiday got traded? Aaron Holiday: I understood why they traded him. Obviously, they wanted Damian Lillard. As a brother, I didn’t understand it at the same time. As an NBA player, I did. However, Jrue landed in a perfect spot. He’s on another contending team. He’s there to help them win, and he could be the missing piece with Kristaps Porzingis. He can be the missing piece for another championship. He’s a great talent and plays his role. He’s not going to be a guy who is out here too many shots or going off script. He’s going to stick to the game plan, play the right way, and play defense. That’s all you really need for that team because they have a lot of scoring, and he plays really good defense as well. I feel like they have a great chance to win the championship. -via HoopsHype / December 1, 2023
