Former Houston Rockets guard Kevin Porter Jr. is taking his talents overseas, joining Greek club PAOK for the remainder of the season.
NBA insider Shams Charania broke the news, revealing Porter’s decision to sign with PAOK after his recent stint in the NBA.
Porter’s move to PAOK comes after a tumultuous period, including a trade to the Oklahoma City Thunder and subsequent release.
Despite his promising talent, Porter faced challenges off the court, including a domestic assault charge, leading to his release from the Thunder.
The agreement with PAOK marks a new chapter for Porter, who showcased his skills in the NBA last season, averaging 19.2 points, 5.3 rebounds and 5.7 assists in 34.3 minutes per game.
Having agreed to a lucrative contract extension with the Rockets in 2022, Porter’s career trajectory has taken an unexpected turn with his move to Greece.
