Kristaps Porzingis made a comeback for the Celtics after missing eight games due to a severe viral illness, later identified as bronchitis. He described the experience as the sickest he had ever been, detailing how he struggled with lingering fatigue even after returning to the court. Porzingis initially hoped to return sooner, setting his sights on the game against the Lakers, but faced setbacks as he pushed himself too hard. After overcoming his illness, he felt he was finally in shape to contribute to the team's success during a crucial win against the Nets.
"I hadn't been that sick for probably ever in my life."
