both Porter brothers are made of glass. It's a shame,but tearing both mcl and acl is going to kill his draft stock even if he somehow becomes a decent rotation player in the future.

Both? For "brothers" yes, but...

Oldest sister, Bri, sustained five ACL tears throughout her high school and college career before medically retiring at Missouri.


Second-oldest sister Cierra retired because of chronic knee issues in June, a year shy of finishing her eligibility.


I talked a lot this year about why I wouldn't have drafted MPJ (or any vegan) with a top 12 pick but apparently that's controversial.

This is NOT a coincidence and any NBA franchise that wouldn't take this into account is extremely irrational (Sacramento...)

Yep it is genetic often so the sisters history if she is full blood related should have been taken into account as well when MPJ was picked. I think at that point Denver just flipped a coin.

As the guy who started this thread, I approve. Let's hope he has some athletic ability left after the crushing injuries.
