In a tense Game 4 matchup between the Boston Celtics and the Miami Heat, the Celtics received a major scare when their star player, Kristaps Porzingis, succumbed to a non-contact injury during the second quarter on Monday night.

Porzingis was forced to exit the game and did not return. Although the extent of his calf injury is yet to be determined, the towering forward took to social media after the Celtics' 102-88 win to share an uplifting message with his fans. In his tweet, Porzingis expressed gratitude for the support received and expressed optimism about his recovery, stating, "Thanks for all the support, will be good."

During the game, Porzingis had managed just 14 minutes of play before being sidelined. The question now arises whether he will be fit to return for Game 5, scheduled to take place at Boston's TD Garden on Wednesday. With a chance to clinch the series victory over the Heat, the Celtics will be hoping for positive news about Porzingis' condition.

ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reported that the team is hopeful that Porzingis did not sustain an Achilles injury, but a more detailed update on his injury status will only be available after he undergoes imaging on Tuesday. The Celtics organization is eagerly awaiting the results in the hopes that their star player will be cleared to join them in their crucial Game 5 clash.

With tip-off for Game 5 set for 7:30 p.m. EST, the entire Celtics fan base will be on edge, awaiting the official verdict on Porzingis' ability to return to the court. The team's hopes of securing a series victory against the Heat largely hinge on the availability and readiness of the Latvian superstar.

As fans and teammates rally behind him, Porzingis will be enduring an anxious wait for the medical evaluation. The Celtics organization will be hoping for good news and a positive prognosis that allows their formidable player to take the court once again and contribute to their pursuit of a series victory.
