Celtics GM confirms Kristaps Porzingis' recovery timeline of 5-6 months due to multiple leg injuries, ruling him out for the new season.

Celtics GM Brad Stevens confirms Kristaps Porzingis recovery is progressing well, but his return to the court will take several months due to a strained right calf and surgery for a torn retinaculum and dislocated posterior tibialis tendon in his left leg. The timeline for recovery is estimated to be five to six months, meaning Porzingis will not be available for the Celtics when the new season starts. Despite participating briefly in the NBA Finals, there are no expectations for his presence to change the outcome of games.
