Mirotic was taken to the hospital Tuesday after their shoving altercation during practice ended with an alleged cheap shot from Portis to Mirotic’s face, league sources told The Vertical. Mirotic is undergoing tests, but is expected to be out for the foreseeable future, league sources said.

I thought we were supposed to be all happy, with Cranky Jimmy gone and Nice Fred free to run his own show. Man, what a mess this franchise has become.

Portis will likely get suspended. This could really screw up his career.

I hope not. I think that would be about all I needed to see from a Bobby Portis.

I know I'm speaking in the moment and letting emotion take over, but if it really was a cheap shot from Portis that was bad enough to send Niko to the hospital and miss significant time, I think I'd like him off the team.
I suppose a lot depends on what led up to that moment, but you just can't have that kind of garbage around a young, rebuilding team. I do reserve the right to update my position after hearing more of the story.
Really disappointing to hear this.

There has to be more to this. How do these guys workout together most of the summer then decide the day before the season it's time to go all fight club.

Bobby Portis is a bad player and clearly an idiot. Suspend him at a minimum, release him from his deal more appropriately.

Hope Niko is ok and hope Portis gets cut immediately. Jesus. Anyone wana argue we aren't a bigger laughing stock than the Knicks or the Kings still?

Hope he is ok.
Reminds me from Martynas Andriuškevičius, even though that was with the D-league.

How is this possible? All I've heard all summer is what a positive environment GarPax and Fred have created and how the young guys are working so hard and everyone has bought in? I know GarPax wouldn't lie to me...
