c’mon Porter
Rockets fan here. Cut this loser if this is all accurate
He has history so this shouldn’t be a surprise
Charlotte Hornets are thinking “how could we miss this guy?”
Is this the last straw? How many second chances has he gotten
Fucking moron.
Hurts to see young guys take themselves so far upward just squander it repeatedly.
Bro realized that mf Dillon Brooks was taking his roster spot and decided to go out with a bang
Sigh, this dude will never learn. He’s been given so many opportunities it’s crazy
“According to The Athletic, 20-year-old Porter became super pissed when he arrived to the locker room on Friday and noticed recently-acquired Taurean Prince had taken over his locker … and KPJ’s new spot was among the “end of the bench” players.
The report says Porter started to yell … and even threw food at one point.
Of course, it’s been a rocky start to Porter’s NBA career — the 2019 30th overall pick was arrested in Ohio back in November following a one-car accident.
He faced multiple charges including improper handling of a firearm in a motor vehicle and weed possession … but eventually, all charges were dismissed.
Porter — who was also briefly suspended for “conduct issues” during his freshman season at USC”

Dude has legitimate and serious issues
Well this is why Houston gave this guy a basically completely unguaranteed contract. If he did anything out of line they could cut him loose and be done with it. He has some pretty concerning history so good riddance?
if true, bye bye sir. He’s had enough chances to clean up his act
It’s a shame such a talented player has hindered his career so much just off making poor decisions
Had a good rookie season but practically had to be cut because of issues, then another team gives him a chance and he literally leaves a game but they move past it and give him an incentivized deal and he does this
Only 23 too
This man does not want to succeed at any cost.
Time to let him go, we have plenty of talent. See if Cam Whitmore can play back up SG
Can’t believe he’d be so dumb. His entire remaining contract is NON-GUARANTEED
2019 Draft class cant miss
This guy is unhinged. Never forget how he got booted from Cleveland after throwing a tantrum in the locker room. Thankfully there’s not even a place on the Rockets for him anymore with Green, Whitmore and Amen there.
Weird way to try out for the Hornets.
Koby knew
Not my girl Kysre man
We teach our athletes to be great n their sport. Time to teach conflict resolution.
This dude has a long history of trouble
– Suspended at USC for conduct issues in 2019
– caught a gun charge and driving without a license after a car accident in Cleveland
– Accused by a woman of punching her in the face in 2020
– Threw a temper tantrum when his locker was moved, threw food around the locker-room and called his GM a slave owner
– Suspended by the Rockets after leaving the game at halftime after an altercation with an assistant coach
He’s not good enough to warrant keeping around
Welp I guess the glut of guards and minutes struggle just got figured out. Hope
The victim is getting the love and support she needs
> **Once he entered with the help of hotel security, Porter is accused of beating up the woman**, the sources said.
Did this dumbass do it **in front** of the security guards??
Julio Urias 2: Electric Beataloo
I read this ambiguous headline, and thought “it was definitely KPJ”
Clicked the post, yep.
This kid needs help, he’s obviously very unstable
NBA can’t sweep this one under the rug. I’d imagine there would be a lot of backlash if he’s given just a slap on the wrist since the victim is a WNBA player.
This dude has been the dumbest player in the NBA for a while now. Was shocked Houston gave him such a big role over the past few years
Kid is a loser. He had a bad attitude in cleveland, and continues to have one in HOU. This is who he is
People still clown on that Cavs trade to this day
Adios you fucking dumbass. Unsalvageable
Disappointing, but unfortunately not surprising. Was really hoping he made progress but clearly he hasn’t.
I hope the victim is okay and is able to safely get away from him moving forward
STOP. BEATING. ON. YOUR. PARTNERS!
