As of the latest update, there hasn’t been any official announcement regarding Kristaps Porzingis’ availability for the Celtics vs. Mavericks game. Porzingis has been dealing with various injuries throughout the season, including ankle soreness and lower back tightness, which have caused him to miss multiple games. However, his status for Game 4 remains uncertain.
Porzingis’ presence on the court significantly impacts the Mavericks’ gameplay, especially on both ends of the floor with his scoring ability and rim protection. If he is unable to play, it would be a setback for the Mavericks, requiring other players to step up and fill his role.
On the other hand, if Porzingis does play, his performance might still be affected by his ongoing health issues. The team and coaching staff will likely monitor his condition closely and make a decision based on his readiness and the potential risks of aggravating his injuries.
