Total disintegration, painful and necessary. That's the process in which Boston Celtics is immersed, a franchise that has not been able to squeeze as intended the dream team it had managed to put together. Champions two years ago, they were aware that this season was the last in which they could maintain the competitive unit that led them to glory. Kristaps Porzingis is on the way out.

No one doubts the quality of Kristaps Porzingis, but doubts linger about his physical condition. The continuous injuries suffered by the Latvian throughout his career have greatly diminished his competitive impact, even during his time with the Boston Celtics. Therefore, even after shedding Jrue Holiday's salary in exchange for a young player with great offensive skills, the Massachusetts team is clear that they need to trade Porzingis to continue easing their salary cap burden.

The decision is made, and it will be interesting to see the attention Kristaps Porzingis attracts in the market. At 29 years old, heavily plagued by injuries and with a high salary, as well as some past coexistence issues with stars, there are serious doubts that any team will make a significant offer for him, especially considering the urgency of the Boston Celtics to rid themselves of him and the contract that could so significantly shape the franchise's future.
