Impact Porzingis underwent foot surgery in June and was given a 5-to-6-month recovery timeline. He hasn't progressed to contact work yet, but he was spotted going through a light shooting workout ahead of Monday's win over the Bucks. The Celtics have four convincing wins to start the season, including double-digit victories over the Bucks and Knicks, so Porzingis and the medical staff will likely remain cautious, even when the Latvian sharpshooter is cleared for game action.

Making good progress Brad Stevens said that Porzingis (foot) is making good progress since his foot surgery back in June, Jared Weiss of The Athletic reports.

Impact Stevens did not provide an updated timetable for Porzingis, but he said he's been surprised with how quick he's improving. The Celtics originally gave Porzingis a 5-to-6 month timetable, and the center told ESPN's Ramona Shelburne that he's expecting to return in December. With Porzingis trending in the right direction, he'll offer plenty of appeal as a stash pick in fantasy drafts.

Could miss start of season Speaking on the Russillo Podcast, Brad Stevens said Porzingis (leg) could miss the start of the 2024-25 season.

Impact Stevens was pretty vague with his comments, to be fair, and an official timetable won't be known until Porzingis undergoes his procedure in the coming days. Stevens mentioned that Porzingis' potential absence opens the door for the Celtics to be creative at the start of the season with lineups, so for now it sounds like the franchise is planning for this to be a lengthy recovery process.
