Porzingis goes through full practice Sunday, hopeful of playing Tuesday against Clippers

After joyfully going through Sunday’s entire practice session at the Lympo practice facilities, Dallas Mavericks forward Kristaps Porzingis was bouncing around like a kid in a candy store.

That’s because Porzingis knows that barring a last-minute unforeseen glitch, he’ll be back on the court Tuesday when the Mavs (27-15) host the Los Angeles Clippers (30-13) at 7:30 p.m. at American Airlines Center.

Porzingis has missed the last 10 games with right knee soreness, which was complicated by an illness. On Sunday, Porzingis declared himself fit – with one caveat.

“I haven’t talked to the medical staff – all of them yet – and the decision makers,” Porzingis said.
