“MIDTOWN, Manhattan (WABC) — Houston Rockets guard Kevin Porter is under arrest in New York City Monday for allegedly assaulting his girlfriend, a WNBA player, police sources told ABC News.
Porter, 23, is in custody at the NYPD’s 17th precinct in Midtown.
Porter returned early Monday morning from an evening out to the Millennium Hotel in Times Square where he and his girlfriend were staying.
According to police sources, the victim was upset with the late hour of his return and locked the door.
Once he entered with the help of hotel security, Porter is accused of beating up the woman, the sources said.
The extent of the victim’s injuries was not immediately clear.
Domestic assault charges are pending against Porter.”

This dude should have been gone the moment he left the stadium at halftime.

Wait wasn’t he engaged to Coach Lucas goddaughter? Did they split or something?

Cam Whitmore as backup 2g now?
plutosbigbro
Just when you thought he was maturing and turning the corner. Was hoping new coach would help but might be too little too late

Guess those non guaranteed years was a good idea

God damnit, dude. Hoping the woman is alright.
I’ve stuck up for the guy enough, but if this is true he’s got to go. Hope he can get his life together.

This is definitely the biggest bummer of the offseason after plenty of positives. Really thought he had 6MOY potential. DAMN.

Damn. Was really looking forward to see how he looked in his new role, but it’s over for him.

Now we can send him to Hornets. Turns out he is a better fit to hornets

I’ve been saying that as someone with a history of violence agingst women and many issues including somewhat recently, that the odd “Joker” support displayed by so many people here was cringy and embarrassing.
Guy can’t stop hurting people and doing bad, but LOL, he’s our guy.
The Kobe support, the Lowry love, and the KPJ shit was embarrassing, even by some people I really like on this sub.
Stop abusing people, especially women and STOP SUPPORTING THE ABUSERS.

I am heart broken. One of my favorite players. I trusted him and believed in his growth not just as a basketball player but as a person.
But this obviously crossed a line that can never be uncrossed. I hope he never touches an NBA court again. Abusers don’t deserve second chances.
Praying Kysre is ok

Yeah cut him and move on.
This is bigger than basketball and even if we did need him I’d still say cut him, but I don’t think we need him. We got a lot of talent and only so many minutes to go around.

His gf and her family have been through a lot, I hope she is okay 💔

Damn damn damn
Hope she’s ok. Come on KPJ

Maybe this sub will finally realize that he’s been a locker room cancer all along. This is much more serious than leaving a game at halftime, but his character issues have always been a concern on a young team especially. Good riddance.

As a long time KPJ redemption arc believer it’s time to call it. Where there’s smoke there’s fire. Even if this is some overblown drama he didn’t get arrested for being a nice guy. Really sucks but we gotta move on from him.

And people in this sub very recently told me he had matured and fixed his shitty attitude problem.
