The Cleveland Cavaliers selected University of Southern California guard Kevin Porter Jr. in the first round of the 2019 NBA Draft, who came to USC as a highly touted recruit (as 247 Sports demonstrated) going into the 2018-19 collegiate season.
Needless to say, his lone season in L.A. was a bit of a bumpy one. He showed gobs of potential but also showed some maturity issues which reportedly led to a suspension, and he battled some nagging injuries, as KJG’s Robbie DiPaola noted.
Despite his high level of talent, Porter only played in 21 games and only started four of those contests (per Sports Reference).
