The second half of last season and through the playoffs, Kristaps Porzingis was not himself – a virus on which the doctors could not really put their fingers was slowing it down. He played in just 42 games and in the playoffs they scored on average 7.7 points and 4.6 rebounds a match with 31.6%shooting. As an example of what he fought, his playoff for the 2024 title was an almost 19.6 star level, last season which fell to an average well below average 11.3.

Porzingis said Lettonia’s Sports Studija He feels herself again and is ready to play for its native litter in Eurobasket, then with the Hawks next season (hat Basknews.com for the translation).

“I feel fantastic, to tell the truth. I took time to rest after the season. Something lingered during the playoffs: I had tiredness, dizziness, even moments when I felt like I could pass out. It was not fantastic …

“In June, I fully rested and lowered the intensity. All this has gone away. I no longer felt any of the symptoms of the playoffs. I feel very well and ready to join the national team.”

Atlanta had a fantastic offseason and part of this was mistaken for Porzingis-Loga Hawks are betting on him to be the protector of the edge he missed, as well as a pick-and-pop partner for Trane Young-e realizes what Atlanta needs to have a career season.

“I have always been a player who can fit into any system, but now I fit faster. I have read the defenses better and take faster decisions. It is provided with experience.”

What matters most is that it seems healthy and ready to recover from a difficult season, in which it still has an average of 19.5 points per game during the regular season. If Porzingis can do it again efficiently, Hawks become a real threat in an east.
