Kristaps Porzingis remains sidelined as he continues to work himself back towards game fitness. The Boston Celtics forward is recovering from surgery and isn't expected to make his season debut until late December or early January. However, that hasn't stopped the All-Star big man from finding other ways to help his team during his absence.

Kristaps Porzingis seems to be making progress on his rehab journey after the Celtics’ X account posted a clip of him practicing on court.

Forecasts had him back late Nov. to 2024's end, and we're at the earliest part of that range while KP's presence around the team is more visible.

Kristaps Porzingis is progressing well in his rehab, though there's still no concrete timetable on his return.

Porzingis reportedly is targeting a December return, though his exact timeline remains unclear and the Celtics likely will be cautious with their difference-making 7-footers. Getting him back should provide a big boost to Boston’s rim defense, which has been lacking through the first 13 games.

The Boston Celtics are moving closer to getting Kristaps Porzingis back in their rotation. The veteran All-Star has missed the opening months of the season as he continues to recover from offseason surgery.
