- Former USC guard Kevin Porter Jr.'s path to the NBA begins with honoring the memory of his father, Kevin Porter Sr., who was shot and killed in 2004. The death of his father has motivated the Seattle-born potential lottery pick to bring his elite scoring abilities to the next level, as he plans to represent his family name once his name is called at the 2019 NBA draft.

Seattle Stand up. 206 kid. Another ball player from the city making it to the league. Let's support him as much as possible
Love this cause its so many fatherless kids goin pro and most don’t even acknowledge their fathers cause 9 times out of 10 he wasn’t in their lives..even though his dad died it’s still shows the amount of love and respect he has for him and what a great father he was...well done youngin well done💯💯
I swear it’s so weird cause I’m a Kevin Jr as well my dad played football and the whole Milwaukee knew practically Rip to both of our fathers 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Be successful for your family bro sorry for ur lost fr I mean that
@@nileswilliamson8700 thanks bro 🙏🏽
May blessings abound.
Keep your head.
Peace.
KP. jr
He’s going to be a ⭐️ ...
My guy is Harden 2.0, let’s hope he plays defense 💯
Kelley oubre
He actually has the skill set to play defense. He needs to want to do it.
Well now he's on the Rockets lol
Lol this comment
@@ulugbekturgunboev6021 banger comment
I feel like he going to go wild in the nba
Yes he is
CAVS
This comment didn’t age well😂
@Plug Productions lmaooooooo he got ratiod so hard. My mans just dropped a 50 bomb
@@brownshirtdamian1034my man just signed with the wongdong fishes big ratio
This man will be a future all star. Mark this post !!! He has a higher ceiling than James Harden and have been watching Harden since his Arizona St days. At 20 years old he has Crawford like handles with that Harden Step back. He is super athletic and a great rebounder.
Not…
KP Jr should be a lottery pick with all of his talent. Atlanta would be wise to look at him hard at #8/#10 but I get the feeling that Miami has him in their sights.
Likely burned his last bridge in Cleveland. Time to get back to his roots, make good decisions and grow up. Remember why basketball was important and get back to working on his trade.
Kevin Porter will be the 3rd best player in this draft behind Ja and Zion. Screenshot this comment and get back to me
@Slender I said third best player, not the third overall pick.
Hopefully
how has this gone
loading greece pretty good actually he’s been balling lately
U mean Herro would be the 3rd best?
Cavs Welcome to Cleveland 💪
Jon Doe congrats y’all for getting him it’s a late response but bucks messed up which I am sad about
Welcome to Houston 🤣🤣🤣
Oof
Welcome to Cleveland!
best player in the draft....calling it now.
Welcoming Kevin porter jr to the Cavs family

CONGRATULATIONS Brotha
Happy for you & your family that it’s all paying off.
Miami don’t drop the ball please. KPJ or Tyler Herro. We need that scoring as much as possible.’
Young OG all I need KPJ he’s up next
Nathan Johnson true he is. I like Tyler Herro too, I see flashes of D Book in his game.
Young OG ya if not KPJ herro for sure
Tyler Herro it is lol
@@izzypeel9978 all the heat fans was mad about getting Herro.. look at them now 😂
love love love this feature thanks espn
H-Town gonna hold it down for you boss ! Welcome to Texas
Bennie and Kevin are pure fire.....

Rockets*
Of course this gets recommended to me now
He's Coming 👀🙏🏽
One hell of an athlete can't wait to see him in the NBA
Bro just drop 50🤧
He looks hungry. Hope celtics get him. Reminds me of a James Harden with a Kawai Leonard story. Make your father proud!
Roger Tiwari Yeah, he looked hungry he got that extra large NY Pizza!😂
@@docjonski2257 🤔
rain city boi ☔️
THAT MAN IS COMING TO MIAMI
Cleeeevelaaaaand
This is for you!
*crying
He’s chill
I'm here after hearing about how he threw his lunch at the Cavs general manager 🤷♂️
Welp looks like he’s about to get traded
waived bro, idk if anyone organization tryna deal with this
@@itswaxfps2955 a team with vets could use him tbh
@@pmn_K agreed I wish the best for him but I don’t see front offices wanting the baggage! But yeah if he had some solid vets to guide him it would be good for him.
Rockets got him Wall and boogie will help him develop
@@GueroTx01 coming from a wizards fan John Wall isn’t the best role model for him. He has been having a hard past few years so John wall is also on a rocky road.
Heat nation stand up
JAVI 2LIVE sit down Cavs got him🤣💪🏻
Welcome to Houston KPJ!
🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀
This man deserved to be drafted number 1 overall
Maxwell Hampoian 🤨
Heatles in the future
This interview didn’t age well lol
@Kirk Eager only time will tell 🤷🏻♂️
50 points
Houston rockets they have there new James harden 🤘🏻🔥🚀🚀🚀
🚀🚀🚀🚀
Miaaammmiiiii
Hope he can keep it together and can keep a nice gym work ethic. Best luck man!
Rookie of the year make it happen
For the 13th pick, the Miami Heat slects Kevin Porter Jr....That's our Miami Heat draft tomorrow! Let's go Heat!🔥🔥🔥🏀🏀🏀
Sry he wasn't invited to the NBA green room.Which means he will be picked above 20
And he got picked at 30
Welcome to H-town KPJ 🚀
🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀
Who's here after the Wizards announcer made the insensitive comment about Porter's father?
The wizards commentator probably got confused with the other Kevin Porter. There was a Kevin Porter who played in the nba in the 80s, it was a mistake not an “insensitive comment”.
Welcome to Cleveland. I'm pulling for KPJ and his family.
Welcome to the Knicks
He just dropped 50!!!!!
Good luck
💔💔💔
Father looking down at you in shame, Don’t drop the soap Mr. porter!
Steal of the draft come back to this comment in 2 years
Zenigundam yea F’n right.
Lottery pick Go.
Lil Dagga yeah iam mas bucks decided to trade him
About 1.5 years later. Showed a lot of promise in year one. Supposedly going to get released or traded. No doubting his talent tho. He can play just needs to get his mental right.
@@cameronboyd8211 fax
I am back. He got an outburst
💔
There was a whole ESPN segment on it but the commentator can do his due diligence to ensure he didn't say what he said
77k views... no one was checking for this
how could you not Root for KPJ! H-Town we got one
This didn't age well😅😅
It's nice to see Harden 2.0 in Houston now.
🚀🚀🚀🚀
🚀🚀🚀🚀
Fight on!!✌✌
legend
Fight On ✌🏾
This video is painful to watch considering his recent drama in Cleveland. Hopefully he changes in Houston.
Porter
This man just dropped fittty
Nice little back up SG for a team in the end of the lottery or late teens.
Fathers: Be there to protect your children. Dad didn't take that to heart. Sad.
the James Harden look-a-like just got traded to Houston!
Haha god bless him with Cousins as one of his mentor vets. 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣
@@TopDownTech PJ Tucker, John Wall, John Lucas are there and are great mentors, not just Cousins. John Lucas handled a lot of off court issues from NBA and NFL players before. He has done this before.
@@stipgaming2438 i sure hope so. I wouldnt wanna see talent like KPJ's go to waste
@@TopDownTech Definitely. Hope he gets his act straight . More power to your channel sir
Welcome to Milwaukee
Got traded unfortunately 😕👎
Souf seattle ☘️☘️

SOUTH SEATTLE 💯
If the heat pass on him I'm becoming a lakers fan
😂
Look like winslow
BIG HOUSE 💪🏿
Kevin Porter Jr. My cousin...no joke...can tell you whatever u want to know 🤷♂️
@@razorfedhar5005 I never paid attention to that, that’s weird
Crazy that he’s wit the rockets now lol😎
W
Its insane that 29 teams pass on dude
Looks like there is a reason why they did pass on him
@@atlantahawksfan8443 oh he finna be a star in Houston and maybe mvp candidate
Going back to this comparison to Harden now that He is being traded to the Rockets
"that you can lose it"
seems so nice, where the conduct issues related to behavior or drugs?
Poor guy, who knows what he had to go through. Never judge people if you don't know their backstory.
James harden Jack of all Trades master of none
Miami Better draft him
OKC
