Kristaps Porziņģis did not finish the game against Minnesota’s Timberwolves due to foot pain. The Latvian scored 13 points in 23 minutes, but Dallas failed with 105: 111. Both teams will compete in Dallas on Wednesday night.
After the game, the seriousness of Porziņģis’ injury was not commented on, but tonight after the Latvian time, the Dallas Mavericks said that the participation of the power striker in the next game was in question. It is known that the leader Luka Dončičs will miss another match due to an ankle injury. Max Kleber has joined the Covid-19 safety and health protocol, becoming the third Dallas basketball player in the Covid-19 protocol after Reggio Buloc and Josh Green.
At the start of the season, Kristaps Porziņģis missed several games due to a back injury, but later did not play due to a leg injury against the Pelican team in New Orleans. In another game, the Latvian dislocated his ankle, but the injury did not make Porziņģis miss games at that time. So far, the Mavericks basketball player has averaged 19.4 points in 22 games, won 7.9 rebounds and blocked 1.6 opponents.
The Mavericks have slipped to ninth place in the West with 14 wins in 29 games, while Minnesota’s Timberwolves are one place higher.
