Kristaps Porzingis return vs. the Nets is an amazing sign for the Boston Celtics
Kristaps Porzingis' great return against the Brooklyn Nets on Saturday (March 14) night is an amazing sign for the Boston Celtics. The Latvian center led the Celtics in scoring with 24 points while having an efficient scoring night all around for Boston, hardly looking like a player who had just returned from an extended absence he described as "some sort of upper respiratory thing that turned into something heavier" that had him perhaps sicker than he had ever felt in his life.
How much does KP returning to form so soon after such a long absence move the needle for Boston as they gear up to get ready for the 2025 NBA Playoffs?
The host of the CLNS Media "You Got Boston" podcast, Noa Dalzell, took some time on a recent episode of her show to talk it over. Check it out below!
