The 22-year-old is off to a strong start in that regard following a 20-game absence in the season's second half due to a toe injury. The loss to Memphis in Porter's return was followed by a pair of wins over the weekend, two double-digit victories over the San Antonio Spurs. And while we won't hang any banners for beating the NBA's most egregious tanker in 2022-23, stacking any number of wins is worth noting amid Houston's abysmal season. With 18 games left, perhaps the victories over San Antonio can build some much-needed momentum entering next year.

Porter's third season in Houston is an uneven one to date.
