Kevin Porter Jr. News, Rumors, Updates - Milwaukee Bucks

Still out Porter (foot) has been ruled out for Wednesday's matchup against the Thunder.

Impact Porter will miss the Rockets' final game before the All-Star break, bringing his total to 17 consecutive absences. Houston will hopefully provide an update on the USC product's status over the next 10 days, but for now, his next chance to suit up will come Feb. 24 against Golden State.

Won't play Monday Porter (foot) has been ruled out for Monday's matchup against the 76ers.

Impact Porter hasn't played since Jan. 11 due to a left foot contusion. The starting point guard said at the end of January that there's still no timetable for his return, and the team hasn't provided an update since. Following Monday's contest, Houston has only one game left before the All-Star break, so it seems likely Porter will miss that contest as well, which would bring his grand total to 17 straight absences. However, until there's clarification on a potential timeline, we'll continue to handle his status on a game-by-game basis, so his next chance to suit up will come Wednesday in Oklahoma City.

Still sidelined Friday Porter (foot) is out for Friday's matchup with the Heat.

Rockets face the Kings on 3-game losing streak

Houston aims to break its three-game slide when the Houston Rockets take on Sacramento

Remains out Monday Porter (foot) will remain out for Monday's game against the Kings, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Impact Porter will be sidelined for a 13th straight game while he continues to recover from the bruised left foot he sustained Jan. 11 in Sacramento. The point guard said last Tuesday that he remains in the midst of rehabbing the injury and has thus far been limited to dribbling and light shooting, but neither he nor the Rockets have provided any indication when he might be ready to practice again. With that in mind, Porter doesn't look like a strong bet to suit up in any of the Rockets' three games this week.

No return timetable Porter (foot/toe) said Tuesday that there's still no timetable for his return to game action, Michael Shapiro of SI.com reports.

Impact Porter still isn't practicing or doing any basketball-related drills while rehabbing from a left foot injury and will remain out indefinitely. Fantasy managers can safely keep Porter on the bench until reports of him returning to practice surface or he's upgraded to questionable on the Rockets' official injury report.

Not yet practicing Porter (foot) sat out Monday's practice and is set to remain out for Wednesday's game against the Thunder, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Impact The Rockets haven't provided any concrete updates regarding where exactly Porter stands in his recovery from the bruised left foot that has kept him sidelined for each of the team's last nine games, but his continued absence from practice means he'll be sidelined again as Houston kicks off a three-game week. Considering that the Rockets close the week with a Friday/Saturday back-to-back set versus the Raptors and Thunder, respectively, Porter may be available to play in just one game this week even if he's able to return to practice Tuesday and/or Thursday.

Will miss at least a week Porter (foot) will not play in Saturday's game against the Timberwolves and will be re-evaluated in one week, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Impact Porter has already missed four games with a bruised left foot and is still in a considerable amount of pain, per coach Stephen Silas. Kenyon Martin has started in each of the four games Porter's missed while Jalen Green has shifted to the point guard position, and they should continue to hold those roles until Porter returns. His first opportunity to do so will come Jan. 28 in Detroit.

Officially listed as doubtful Porter (foot) is officially doubtful for Saturday's matchup against Minnesota.

Impact It was reported earlier Friday that Porter and Jabari Smith (ankle) had both been ruled out for Saturday's game, but it appears the team hasn't officially declared the two starters out officially yet. Kenyon Martin will likely remain in the starting lineup if Porter remains sidelined for a fifth straight game as expected.

Remains out Saturday Porter (foot) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against Minnesota, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Impact Porter underwent an examination from a foot specialist Friday and didn't practice, and he'll be unavailable for a fifth consecutive matchup. Porter's return timetable will likely depend on whether the foot specialist finds anything particularly concerning regarding his injury.

Out again Wednesday Porter (foot) remains out for Wednesday's game versus the Hornets, Jackson Gatlin of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.

Impact Porter is set for his fourth consecutive game on the sidelines, leaving the Rockets again shorthanded in the backcourt. Kenyon Martin has picked up some starts in Porter's absence and could maintain that starting spot Wednesday, while Porter will shift his sights toward Saturday in Minneapolis for his next chance to return when the Rockets take on the Timberwolves.

Questionable Wednesday Porter (foot) is questionable for Wednesday's game versus Charlotte.

Out again Monday Porter (foot) will not play in Monday's game against the Lakers.

Impact Porter will miss a third straight contest due to a bruised left foot that he suffered Jan. 11. However, Jalen Green and Jae'Sean Tate will be available Monday after serving their one-game suspensions Sunday. The aforementioned duo should be in line for larger workloads, while Daishen Nix and TyTy Washington could see more minutes as well. Porter's next chance to play will come Wednesday against Charlotte.

JANUARY 16, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Officially out Porter (foot) has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup against the Clippers.

Impact Porter was initially listed as doubtful for Sunday's matchup, so as expected, he'll miss a second straight game due to a foot injury he suffered during Wednesday's loss to Sacramento. The Rockets will also be without Jae'Sean Tate and Jalen Green, who are serving one-game suspensions, so Houston's backcourt will be extremely depleted against Los Angeles. TyTy Washington, Garrison Mathews and Daishen Nix figure to be the primary beneficiaries.

JANUARY 15, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Doubtful to play Sunday Porter (foot) is doubtful to play Sunday against the Clippers, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Impact The Rockets are not ready to rule Porter out yet, but the feeling is that he has a stronger chance of playing Monday against the Lakers in the second half of a back-to-back set. If he can't go Sunday, then Jae'Sean Tate or TyTy Washington might be in line to play significant backcourt minutes.

Unavailable Friday Porter (foot) has been ruled out of Friday's contest against the Kings, Ben DuBose of USA Today reports.

Impact After exiting early Wednesday following a collision with teammate Jae'Sean Tate, Porter will miss the Rockets' next game with a left foot contusion. Expect Kenyon Martin and Jae'Sean Tate to see increased minutes while Porter is out. Porter's next chance to return to action will be Sunday against the Clippers.

Early exit Wednesday Porter will not return to Wednesday's game against the Kings due to a left foot contusion, Adam Wexler of Sportstalk 790 Houston reports.

Impact Porter collided with Jae'Sean Tate toward the end of the first quarter and has been ruled out for the rest of the contest. Kenyon Martin entered the starting lineup for the second half and should continue to see more minutes. Porter's next chance to play comes Friday in a rematch with Sacramento.

JANUARY 12, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Goes for 25 points in loss Porter posted 25 points (9-15 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 2-4 FT), six rebounds, five assists, one block and one steal over 38 minutes during Sunday's 104-96 loss to the Timberwolves.

Impact Porter dealt with an ankle injury in the second half, but he still finished the game and ended as one of Houston's most productive players due to his ability to impact the game on both ends of the court. Porter has now scored at least 23 points in four of his last five contests and is averaging 21.0 points, 5.3 rebounds, 4.5 assists and 1.3 steals per game to begin the year.
