Porzingis, a 7-foot-3 forward and center, averaged an impressive 23.2 points, 8.4 rebounds, and 2.7 assists last season while shooting 49.8% from the field and 38.5% from beyond the arc.
However, many seem to be fixated on his injury history, overlooking his significant potential to contribute to the team. This was the topic of conversation on a recent episode of the CLNS Media “Celtics Beat” podcast between host Evan Valenti and guest Jack Simone of Celtics Blog fame.
