NBA: Diagnose bei Porzingis da: So lange fällt der Celtics-Center aus

nba: diagnose bei porzingis da: so lange fällt der celtics-center aus

Porzingis hatte sich beim 102:88 gegen die Heat in der Nacht auf Dienstag ohne Fremdeinwirkung verletzt und musste das Spiel vorzeitig verlassen. Eine schwere Verletzung hat der Lette vermieden. Wie lange er dem Titelfavoriten fehlen wird, ist allerdings noch unklar.

Es handelt sich laut Adrian Wojnarowski von ESPN um die gleiche Art von Wadenzerrung, mit der sich auch Superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo von den Milwaukee Bucks herumplagt. Der fehlt seinem Team mittlerweile seit fast drei Wochen und konnte in der Playoff-Serie gegen die Indiana Pacers (aktuell 3-2 für Indiana) noch nicht eingreifen.

Die Celtics führen in der Serie gegen die Heat mit 3-1 und können sich das Ticket für die Conference Semifinals in der Nacht auf Donnerstag (1.30 Uhr) sichern. Gegner in der nächsten Playoff-Runde wären die Cleveland Cavaliers oder Orlando Magic. In dieser Serie führen die Cavs aktuell mit 3-2.

In der Regular Season legte Porzingis im Schnitt 20,1 Punkte und 7,2 Rebounds auf und hatte großen Anteil daran, dass sich das Team mit einer Bilanz von 64-18 den Top-Seed in der Eastern Conference sicherte.

Auch die Heat haben einen weiteren Ausfall zu beklagen: Rookie Jaime Jaquez Jr. wird Spiel 5 mit einer Hüftverletzung verpassen. Er ist mit dem Team nicht nach Boston gereist. Miami muss bereits auf Jimmy Butler und Terry Rozier verzichten.
