It took star Boston Celtics big man Kristaps Porzingis a fair amount of the first half of the NBA’s 2024-25 regular season to get back on the court after a rare injury sidelined him in the 2024 NBA Finals. The slog of rehabilitating his dinged-up ankle and getting back into game shape while his teammates were at times struggling without him was no easy journey for the Latvian center to endure.
Porzingis recently took some time on a recent episode of the team-produced “The Grind” show to talk over that grueling process and what it took for him to get back to playing high-level ball for Boston this season.
Take a look at the clip embedded below to hear what he had to say about his rehab, and getting himself in a position to be able to help his teammates compete for a second title in as many years.
