Holy cow, his family genetics is just unfortunate and horrible. You can't make this stuff up. His older sister Cierra has had 5 ACL tears, with the first one coming in 8th grade. She was forced to medically retire(although I think she attempted a comeback). His other older sister Bri ALSO suffered a torn ACL. Michael's spine and back injury is also very severe. Now Jontay suffers 2 ACLs within 6 months?
Those shots he took towards the end of the game was just... rough. Nathan Hoover should've touched the ball, he was red hot today. Ahh, you live and die by Fletcher Magee. I feel bad to see his last game go out the way it did.. but making it to the 2nd round of the tournament is a very good accomplishment.

I feel so bad for them. They're also vegetarians which I wonder whether or not it plays a role in any of this.
I think Porter would be worth a gamble in the 2nd round, but you're talking about 2 years before he even steps foot on an NBA court.

The entire family was vegeterian for over a decade. They recently switched to a raw vegan diet last year though.the entire Porter family or just the sister and Jontay?

that would explain their frail genetic makeup then....you lose so many minerals and protein that helps keep your muscles strong when going Vegan but that's just my opinion
I agree. Ask Bill Walton how that Veggi diet worked out for him..
isn't Kyrie vegan as well?
I thought that RJ got away with a dennis rodman stlye pushoff on the OREB before the game winner, i refuse to beleive the UCF bigman would get pushed that far under the rim under his own volition and the over-head angle was conclusive.Incredible finish to Duke/UCF! Zion and RJ came up big at the end. Heartbreaking for UCF though.
Nassir Little having a big impact on both ends. I really like him as a fit for our team at SF. Shame he's going to be long gone before we pick.
So frustrating man, and De'Aaron got jobbed by the refs vs UNC too, both ways, he was getting hammered and it was no-calls then ticky tack fouls on him...Well, so far I've only lost four teams in my bracket. And my overall bracket, final 8 and final 4 are still in tack. If I haven't mentioned it, I have Gonzaga winning the whole thing. I had them winning it two years ago and they got cheated out of it by the ref's getting every big man on their team in foul trouble. In case your wondering, I picked Villanova to win it last season.... So far so good.......
How do you like Ponds? I watched some of his games a year ago, but I don't remember what I thought about him lol@EvanDaniels
St. John’s star guard Shamorie Ponds will enter the NBA Draft and sign with an agent, he tells @247Sports.

I'ma believer. His handle is very good, he's got the ball on a string, and he's also a very good shooter. Was always vehement that the Warriors backup PG Quinn Cook was an NBA player (tho it took way longer than it should've) and I think Ponds could be headed for that type of role.How do you like Ponds?
