After a few possessions clearly favoring his left leg, he limped off the floor in favor of Neemias Queta and headed straight for the locker room. It’s the left ankle that Porzingis had surgery on over the summer with a torn retinaculum and dislocated posterior tibialis tendon.

Earlier in the game, Sam Hauser was ruled “doubtful to return” with right abductor tightness.

UPDATE: Porzingis returned to the floor in the second half and hit back-to-back threes. Exhale.
