Porzingis continues to work back from the injury he suffered in Game 4 of the series against the Miami Heat.

“It’s been nothing but optimism with Kristaps Porzingis,” Chris Forsberg offered on NBC Sports Boston’s pregame coverage on Thursday. “… All early indications are super positive.”

If the Celtics stay on schedule with their championship aspirations, Porzingis has a solid chance to return to postseason action for Boston.
