Missed Feb. 14 game for maintenance of strained left adductor he has played through recently - doubtful to play in All-Star game but head coach Ty Lue said the injury is not believed to be serious - has been managing left adductor issue over past month and team will want him healthy for stretch run.
Missed Feb. 14 game with right shoulder contusion - issue should resolve during All-Star break and team was likely being cautious with their star given the chance for a longer rest - not expected to miss games coming out of the break.
Suffered left hamstring strain on Feb. 13 and will rest through All-Star break - team has hinted that it's minor but he had issue with same hamstring earlier this season - may miss a game or two coming out of break as team will want him fully healthy to avoid aggravation.
Did not return to Feb. 14 game with right ankle sprain he suffered in 1st half against the Nets - Porzingis said he was available to play in the 2nd half but was held out due to the lopsided score - opposite side as Jan. 25 left ankle sprain but this issue shouldn't cause him to miss time out of the All-Star break
Exited Monday's game in the 2nd quarter due to shin splints - unlikely to play before All-Star break from 2/16-2/21 - can be alleviated with proper stretching, rest and maintenance.
