After being ruled out of the 2023 FIBA World Cup for the Latvian National Team due to plantar fasciitis in his right foot, star Boston Celtics big man Kristaps Porzingis has sparked concern among Celtics fans given his past injury history. Team President Brad Stevens made an appearance on WEEI’s “Jones and Mego” show to talk about why he believes that injury is not a major concern for Boston despite Porzingis’ past.
“I’m not concerned about that,” said Stevens via Boston Dot Com‘s Conor Ryan. “He’s at the FIBA Tournament with the team, so he’s doing his rehab there.”
