Kevin Porter Jr. shines in starting role

by Bruno Mulé | Clippers Correspondent | Thu, Jan 23rd 10:57am EST

Kevin Porter Jr. posted 26 points (12-of-21 FG, 2-of-6 3PT), seven rebounds, seven assists, and three steals across 39 minutes in Wednesday’s 117-113 overtime loss to the Celtics.

Fantasy Impact:

Stepping into the starting lineup for a depleted Clippers squad, Porter delivered a standout performance, shooting efficiently from the field and contributing across multiple categories. His 2.3 assist-to-turnover ratio highlights his solid playmaking effort, a notable improvement given his reputation for inconsistency. While backing up James Harden typically caps his fantasy value, Porter proved he can excel when given an expanded role. However, with the Clippers expected to have a healthier rotation for Thursday’s matchup against the Wizards, Porter’s fantasy relevance remains limited to deeper leagues or streaming in similar situations.
