Philadelphia 76ers 2019 NBA Draft profile: Kevin Porter Jr.

A relative unknown coming into the season, it didn’t take long for Kevin Porter Jr. to find himself in the lottery on most draft boards. He was electric early in the campaign, wooing fans with his mesmerizing display of ball handling and shot-making.

Then came a rough patch. Porter missed time to both a leg injury and a suspension, which disrupted his rhythm and soured his perception among draftniks. According to The Athletic’s Sam Vecenie, teams are pegging Porter anywhere between the lottery and the second round. The Philadelphia 76ers should therefore have interest.
