Michael Porter Jr. Scores 12 in Return as Missouri Upset in SEC Tournament

For the first time since Nov. 10, projected top-10 pick Michael Porter Jr. appeared in a game for the Missouri Tigers, as they lost 62-60 to the Georgia Bulldogs in the second round of the 2018 SEC tournament.

As one could imagine, there was some rust. That just comes with the territory after missing five months of game action—not to mention the fact that he had only played two minutes of college basketball. Ever.

Porter has finally recovered enough from back surgery to get back on the court. Unfortunately for him, he is being thrust right into the fire, as March Madness is upon us.
