Kristaps Porzingis played a critical role in helping the Boston Celtics secure their 18th NBA championship title despite suffering a severe leg injury. Porzingis sustained a torn medial retinaculum, leading to a dislocation of the posterior tibialis tendon in Game 2 of the Finals, which required surgery and a recovery period of a few months. He missed Games 3 and 4 but returned for Game 5, contributing five points in 16 minutes. His decision to play through the pain demonstrated his commitment to the team, earning high praise from head coach Joe Mazzulla and teammates. While his presence on the court was limited due to his injury, his effort inspired the team and fans. The Celtics will now need to consider their options for big-man depth as Porzingis recovers.
