NBA rumors: Cleveland Cavaliers trade Kevin Porter Jr. to the Houston Rockets
Nov. 11, 2024 – 13:37 – Since a reported blow-up in the team’s locker room earlier this week, NBA rumors have linked former Cleveland Cavaliers first-round pick Kevin Porter Jr. to potential trades.
Initially seen as a cornerstone piece in Cleveland following a strong rookie season, Porter Jr. fell out of favor after blowing up at Cavaliers general manager Koby Altman in a strange outburst that included him throwing food and claiming “modern day slavery.” This is actually a thing that happened.
Porter Jr. is now on his way out of town mere days after said outburst. He’s set to join yet another drama-filled organization who is coming off a blockbuster trade of its own.
