President of basketball operations Brad Stevens said Tuesday that Porzingis (foot) is making good progress since his foot surgery in June, Jared Weiss of The Athletic reports.
Stevens did not provide an updated timetable for Porzingis, but he said he's been surprised by how quickly he's improving. The Celtics originally gave Porzingis a 5-to-6-month timetable, and the center told ESPN's Ramona Shelburne that he's expecting to return in December. Currently, the big man is limited to jogging and light on-court work with minimal contact, per Tim Bontemps of ESPN.com. With Porzingis trending in the right direction, he'll offer plenty of appeal as a stash pick in fantasy drafts.
