On May 26, Beijing time, in the NBA playoffs East Final G3, the Celtics narrowly defeated the Pacers 114-111, with a total score of 3-0. The outcome of this game is already known. What many people don't know is that there is another big killer in the Celtic squad who is out due to injury, and he is Porzingis. Moreover, Boshen is about to make a comeback!

Porzingis has been sidelined from G5 against the Heat in the first round due to a calf injury. In the Eastern Conference semifinals and Eastern Conference finals, he didn't play a single game. So the question is: when will Boshen make a comeback? According to ESPN, the Celtics originally wanted him to make a comeback in G4, but with the team leading 3-0, the team was in no hurry to bring Boshen back.

G4 is on May 28, and G1 is on June 7. If Boshen continues to take a break and wait until the finals come back, he will be able to rest for 9 more days. In this year's playoffs, Porzingis only played 5 games, averaging 22.2 minutes per game, scoring 9.8 points, 4.4 rebounds, 1.6 assists, 1.2 steals and 1.2 blocks, and shooting 36.8%, 36.4%, and 92.9% from three.

Affected by a calf injury, Boshen had a poor playoff performance. But his height and rim protection are too important for Celtic. For example, in the Eastern Conference Finals G3 that ended today, although the Celtics narrowly won by 3 points, the inside score was 40-68 and was completely blown up by the Pacers. The rebounds were 36-43, and the Celtics lost to their opponents by 7!

The Pacers' interior is not strong, and they have already impacted the Green Army like this. In the Finals, facing the Timberwolves or the Mavericks' interior line, Horford and Cornet couldn't stand it at all. Dream Green said on the podcast: "If there is no Boshen, when the Green Army blocks and dismantles the defense, it can't guard the opposing guard, and Horford can't keep up!" ”

Well-known commentator A. Smith said: "If the Mavericks play the Celtics in the finals and Porzingis can't come back, then the Celtics don't have a chance." Fortunately, Boshen is about to make a comeback, and Jaylen Brown is full of confidence: "Once Porzingis' health meets the requirements, we will start killing all sides!" ”

In the regular season this season, Boshen played in 57 games for the Green Army, and he still couldn't stay fully healthy. Boshen averaged 20.1 points, 7.2 rebounds, 2 assists, 0.7 steals and 2 blocks in 29.6 minutes per game, shooting 51.6%, 37.5% and 85.8% from three. Boshen has an average plus/minus of +7.3 per game, which ranks 6th in the league.

Porzingis currently on a five-year, $158 million contract, and this season is the final year of his contract, with a salary of $36.01 million, which ranks 24th in the league. In the 2023 offseason, Boshen will renew his contract with the Celtics in advance for 2 years and $60 million! Although he has a bit of a vitreous physique, an annual salary of $30 million is not much in today's NBA.

It's a relaxing weekend again, and finally brings you Porzingis' girlfriend, or ex-girlfriend Laura Vizla. Why? The sect leader checked it today, and the two of them have deleted the photo on social media, and they are suspected of breaking up. Laura Vizla was born in 1998 and is 1.65 meters tall, and the two have been dating since 2019.
