The Boston Celtics added context to Kristaps Porziņģis' limitations during the NBA playoffs as president of basketball operations Brad Stevens said Monday that Porziņģis battled "post-viral syndrome" throughout the final stretch of the season.

He discussed everything from the health of Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown to what figures to be a busy offseason.

Boston Celtics president of basketball operations Brad Stevens provided an update on the meeting with Duke star phenom Cooper Flagg.

Jaylen Brown reportedly played with a partially torn meniscus during the Celtics' playoff run, which came up short against the Knicks.

Simmons wondered whether the Celtics should ship Porzingis off to the Atlanta Hawks in exchange for 27-year-old power forward John Collins, who is set to earn $26.6 million next season before becoming an unrestricted free agent. “John Collins was in one of my get-the-Celtics-under-the-second-apron trades,” Simmons said.
