Boston Celtics center Kristaps Porzingis suffered a right calf injury during Game 4 against the Miami Heat and is doubtful to return. The injury, described as a soleus strain, occurred without contact. This specific injury has sidelined other players like Giannis Antetokounmpo for extended periods. Porzingis has a history of leg issues, and the Celtics have been cautious with his playtime. He was seen leaving the locker room in a walking boot, and further medical evaluation is pending to determine the severity of the strain. Porzingis is ruled out for Game 5, with the Celtics leading the series 3-1.

We never get full clarity on injuries so who knows how severe this calf strain is for Porzingis, but it's the same nominal injury that has kept Giannis out for three weeks and counting...
