[Fridell] Kristaps Porzingis is open to staying with the Golden State Warriors this offseason, but would not commit to it: “The reality is I didn’t have a good year at all. I barely showed what I’m capable of. And so I have to see what’s out there.”
After injuries have derailed the past two seasons, Porziņģis looks like he is playing without worry again. The Warriors have given him a platform to showcase his game, even as some around the league wondered whether he could stay healthy.
Porziņģis has earned well over \(200 million in his career and is in the final year of a two-year, \)60 million deal he originally signed with the Boston Celtics. He is open to staying with the Warriors past this season as they prepare for one more run behind Curry, but as Porziņģis enters what could be the final two weeks in his brief stint with the Warriors, he’s keeping an open mind about his future.
When asked if he would like to remain in Golden State, the veteran big man didn’t commit.
“It’s hard to say,” Porziņģis told The Athletic after Thursday’s 118-111 loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers. “Of course, it would be nice for me to go ahead and say, ‘Yes, I want to continue here,’ and this and that.
“But the reality is I didn’t have a good year at all. I barely showed what I’m capable of. And so I have to see what’s out there.”
