After averaging 30 points per game in the first ten games of the regular season, Kristaps Porzingis was forced to sit out as the Knicks faced the Magic on Wednesday night.
When addresing the media about his absence, “KP” had this to say:
“When I hit it again it just swells up and it’s sensitive and I can’t stretch my arm. It bothers me a little bit but not that bad. It’s always, I have to get the swelling down and then I’ll be fine again. But I think once the season’s over. I might have to do something about it. I just can’t keep going like this every year.”
Porzingis has had some nagging injuries early in his career and it will be interesting to see how the Knicks handle things moving forward. If the Knicks are competing for a play-off spot, Porzingis will surely want to be out there but if the season is lost, there is no reason why the Knicks shouldn’t their franchise player.
