The Boston Celtics traded Kristaps Porzingis to the Hawks because he struggles to stay healthy and play like a superstar. Atlanta is quickly realizing the injuries are a problem, and his play is suffering. Porzingis has missed the last three games with a right knee soreness and has played in just nine of the team's first 15. That trend won’t stop anytime soon.
The Unicorn has played more than 57 games in a season just once since 2017. At best, fans can expect him to miss 25 games each year, and Celtics fans know his absences can linger.
