The Boston Celtics hope to have Kristaps Porzingis back for Game 1 of the 2024 NBA Finals. However, even if the star big man is healthy enough to play, it may take time for him to fully recover.

Porzingis has not played since suffering a left calf strain in Game 4 of Boston’s first-round series against the Miami Heat. When the Finals begin next Thursday, it will have been 38 days since he last stepped on the court.

The winner of the Western Conference Finals between the Dallas Mavericks and Minnesota Timberwolves will pose a tough challenge for the Celtics. Porzingis could be an X-factor, but is it fair to expect great performances from the All-Star coming off an injury?
