Kristaps Porzingis allegedly punched woman in face as he raped her

Former Knicks star Kristaps Porzingis allegedly punched his neighbor in the face as he raped her, police sources told The Post on Sunday.

The 7-foot-3 Latvian allegedly unleashed the brutal attack Feb. 7, 2018 inside his penthouse at the soaring Sky building in Midtown West, hours after suffering a devastating knee injury.

The woman, who is in her 20s, told the cops about the assault last week and her allegations are considered credible, sources said.

The 23-year-old Dallas Mavericks player denies the accusations and said through his lawyer that the woman tried to extort him.
