    I just heard a news blurb on ABC 13 News about domestic stuff, but haven't found anything else.

    Yet.

    No, where did you hear this?

    He was accused of punching a girl but was found innocent of that in Cleveland. IIRC the police found the accuser completely not credible.

    Is there something else?

    https://abc13.com/search/?query=Kevin Porter Jr.

    Nothing on the ABC 13 website....

    What was the blurb Mango?

    Unless someone has anything real to report - conjecture is dangerous and came be damaging - social media sucks.....

    Please post a link - let's try to be better than Fox news.

    Welp,

    That's it then if this is true, and he will get his day in court, the Rockets should cancel his contract for breach of ethics.

    Rox should immediately suspend him pending outcome and then release him unpaid and cancel his contract.

    Looks like he blew it.

    This fool just can't help himself. Is it too late to cut him or is his contract already guaranteed for this season?

    Jeff Ehling was doing the 11 AM News for Melanie Lawson and it was among the very last things that he mentioned before the finish.

    Something along the lines that they are reaching out for confirmation - more information.

    Since it is News that is a combination of breaking & unconfirmed, too early to be on their web site.


    For those that know me from the distant past, I am not the type to just goof around in the GARM.

    Damn, that is awful to hear. I remember reading that a year or so ago he and his gf had a great relationship. Really sucks to hear KPJ took it to this point.

    He has to get his side out, but you are right, he is in jail, if this is true and not just his GF mad and lying (Highly unlikely) he is done.

    I feel bad for the guy, but he has no one but himself to blame. His NBA career will be gone just like that. What a shame

    It is HORRIBLE for the Rockets they literally wasted 3 years on this, to have it backfire....he is a highly skilled NBA player, but the Rocks can't keep him if this is true...and you usually don't get arrested for nothing - I do want to hear the whole story though, sometimes things are not as they seem. However, most of the time they are.....so percentages say he gets cut.

    And the Rox lose and explosive player that other teams would have had to game plan for - as a basketball deal the Rockets just got a lot weaker......

    I do hope his girlfriend is alright, on a human side, she is all that matters at this point IRL.

    He just beat a woman, and you feel bad for him? He squandered his opportunities, I don't feel bad for him at all.
