In 15 games with the Warriors, Porziņģis averaged 16.1 points, 5.3 rebounds, 2.3 assists, and 1.1 blocks. He provided a dynamic element for the Warriors as a 7-foot-3 stretch five, albeit limited by lack of availability due to illness. The Warriors are hoping that Porziņģis — under the care of Rick Celebrini — will be more available next season.
