Even with back issues and a potentially-checkered health report, Porter is too good to fall outside the top five. The Kings, who desperately need another piece to build around, pounce on Porter without hesitation.
At 6-foot-10, Porter has the size and mobility to play either forward spot. He’s one of the most polished perimeter scorers we’ve seen since Kevin Durant, and combines that with some intriguing upside as a playmaker — something many scouts were hoping to see this season.
He would instantly become the Kings’ primary building block, giving them a go-to scorer and a nice addition to the promising young duo of Bogdan Bogdanovic and De’Aaron Fox.
