Kristaps Porzingis withdraws for Latvia in FIBA World Cup due to injury

Yet another NBA star will not see action in the much-anticipated FIBA Basketball World Cup 2023 to be held in the Philippines, Japan, and Indonesia.

Kristaps Porzingis announced his withdrawal from the national team of Latvia due to a foot injury.

He posted the decision on his social media account.

It is difficult, I feel very responsible to myself and the supporters of the Latvian national team, but a decision has been made that I will not play in the World Cup.

After several weeks of recovery and a repeat MRI examination, the plantar fasciitis of my foot still prevents me from being on the field in full readiness.

This joint decision has been made by both the medical staff and coaching staff of the national team, as well as the Celtics team – with the advice and opinion that it is now necessary to continue the recovery process.

Such a decision is not easy to make, but I promise that I will be there and support the team as much as I can.

Our land – Latvia!

Translated from Latvia’s language.

He, along with other NBA superstars like Giannis Antetokounmpo and Nikola Jokic will not suit up for the competition that will run from August 25 to September 10.

Francis Ngannou cries ‘deception’ vs Anthony Joshua camp

Former UFC fighter Francis Ngannou accused AJ camp of ‘trickery’ when he suffered devastating knockdowns in the first and second round last March 8, 2024 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

The MMA fighter and former UFC heavyweight champion said that AJ camp sabotaged him by letting him go early in the arena.

“We both fought at 3am. What I think, something that’s happened is that they get me to the arena very early. Like my pickup time was 10.30pm to go to the arena. And then when we get to the arena, they tell us that we are scheduled around 1.45am. right?” Ngannou blurted.

He believed that he came exhausted, which resulted in his humiliating defeat.
