Porzingis says foot hurts after exercise, but feels confident he will be ready by start of regular season

We wouldn't blame you if you were concerned about what's going on with the Celtics biggest offseason acquisition. Kristaps Porzingis signed a contract extension with Boston in July and promptly got injured in August. At first we were told he wasn't injured. Then he was out for the FIBA World Cup, but should be ready by the start of camp, and now it seems that the regular season opener has become the new target date.

[Porzingis] discussed the injury and his next steps with Sporta Studija (translated through Google).

"The foot hurts after exercise, I feel almost nothing when walking, it's a really funny injury," Porziu0146gis said of the ailment.
