Kristaps Porziņģis Sidelined Indefinitely With Undisclosed Health Issue
The Golden State Warriors announced that Kristaps Porziņģis will be out indefinitely due to a health issue discovered just before media day, causing him to miss the start of training camp and their trip to Hawaii. Acquired at last season's trade deadline, Porziņģis recently signed a two-year, $40 million extension with $3 million guaranteed next year. His absence forces veteran Al Horford into an expanded role while placing increased offensive pressure on Stephen Curry and the team's depth.
