This guy should have been out of the league a while ago, but he had *just enough* talent for a young, bad team to take a flyer on him.
This should be the final nail in the coffin of his NBA career.
Why so violent
He’s probably done in the NBA. He’s only guaranteed 1M next season so the rockets were smart with the contract they gave him
Strangulation is peak manchild temper tantrum coward shit
What a piece of baby shit
Scumbag, if Silver had any balls he’d ban these dudes from the league.
what a piece of shit; we should have cut him when he left at halftime
david stern rolling in his grave
What a fucking child. Other nba players are hoes too for not speaking on him and Bridges. How hard is it to not beat up women
This piece of shit and the other piece of shit in Charlotte should both be permanently banned from the NBA but of course Silver has no balls, will only probably suspend him for half a season.
Fuck this guy
Finally fucked up his last chance. Good luck in Greece or whatever
damn I haven’t heard about her since her brief stint in the WNBA, didn’t expect this to be the update for what she was up to…
Hopefully everyone can calmly agree on two points;
1. He needs to be out of the NBA immediately with no plan to return.
2. He needs to be institutionalized. Prison with a heavy rehab focus.
Healthy, sane people don’t do these things. Get him away from people and in the hands of professionals.
I couldn’t imagine being a millionaire and then going upside my fine ass girlfriends head.
Oh he’s going to jail
This dude doesn’t learn
Fucking knobhead
JAIL IMMEDIATELY
& im sure the lightest of consequences will be had 🙃
Broken nose according to Rockets insider
NBA needs to come down hard here.
Imagine playing a game for a living, being with a beautiful woman, having enough money to live lavishly… and then fucking it all up like this.
I straight up don’t get these dudes.
It’s going to take her a long time to be completely fine emotionally after such a traumatic experience. I wish her nothing but the best in her recovery, physically, emotionally, and mentally.
I hope that Kevin Porter Jr. never plays another minute in the NBA. He doesn’t deserve the privilege.
Broken bone and choking. Dude has to be gone. Have fun being a piece of shit for the rest of your life, brother.
No sympathy for guys like this.
Low IQ on the court, dickhead off of it. Pack him up
