Tim Hardaway Jr. Kevin Porter Jr. Otto Porter Jr. Michael Porter Jr. Danuel House Jr. Wendell Carter Jr. All playing on Martin Luther King Jr. Day.
Only 20 and only in 2nd season. Cavs are willing to package with one of their surplus of bigs to move Porter. This is a no brainer move for the Rockets who lack quality bigs over 6'6 and this Porter kid is lottery pick level talent on the cheap. John Lucas got a raise and moved up the bench but this should still be his priority, life coach AND shooting coach.
I don't know too much about him outside some of the headlines. He was arrested 3 months ago, charges were later dropped. And now the locker situation. Is this guy a bomb waiting to go off? Is Rockets now a rehab team of 2nd chances? "Porter was arrested Nov. 15 and charged with improper handling of a firearm in a motor vehicle after he flipped his Mercedes SUV on an interstate southeast of Cleveland. Police found a loaded .45-caliber handgun and a small amount of mar1juana in the vehicle, which had its windows smashed after it landed next to the road." NBA list him as 6'4" probably more accurate. His mug shot says 6'6", they could have included shoes or his hair.
