From pretty much the first minute played in the first game of the Boston Celtics preseason slate of games right up until he made his return to the court, star Celtics center Kristaps Porzingis has been a focal point of fans of the team as they awaited the Latvian big man to come back from an extended injury sustained in the 2024 NBA Finals.
Now, KP is back with Boston, helping the Celtics demolish their opponents in a way they can only when he is playing with them at full health.

Take a look at the clip embedded below to hear what they had to say about what Porzingis went through has part of his rehab, and how he is feeling now.
