Atlanta Hawks center Kristaps Porzingis is expected to return from illness soon, though he will miss Monday’s game against the Oklahoma City Thunder and will be evaluated on a day-to-day basis. He has been sidelined for 14 of the last 15 games due to a recurrence of an unspecified illness, which is not related to his previous diagnosis of postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS). This season, Porzingis has averaged 19.2 points, 5.6 rebounds, 3.1 assists, and 1.6 blocks in the 13 games he has played for Atlanta. His performance has been strong as a starter during his first season with the Hawks.
