NBA Finals Injury Report
Celtics Boast Clean Injury Report Heading into Series Opener
After a lengthy layoff, the NBA Finals are finally upon us, with Game 1 just a day away. The Boston Celtics, who have been plagued by injuries throughout the playoffs, have received some welcome news ahead of Thursday's series opener at TD Garden.
Celtics' Injury Report Clears Up
As Game 1 draws near, with tip-off scheduled for this coming Thursday, June 6, the league's injury report has dwindled to just two players. The Celtics, in particular, have a clean bill of health, with no players listed on their injury report.
This is a significant development for the Celtics, who have been dealing with several key injuries throughout the playoffs. However, it appears that they will be at full strength for the start of the NBA Finals.
Porzingis Expected to Play for Mavericks
On the other side of the court, the Dallas Mavericks, who are set to face the Celtics in the NBA Finals, have their own injury concerns. However, reports have emerged that Kristaps Porzingis, a key player for the Mavericks, is expected to play in Game 1.
Porzingis has been dealing with a knee injury but has reportedly been practicing with the team and is expected to be ready for Thursday's game. His return would be a major boost for the Mavericks, who will need all hands on deck to compete with the Celtics.
