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.
