REACTIONS
SAC should be drafting & developing their own Otto Porter's to be eventual #3 option not signing WSH #3 option to max to be their #1 option. https://t.co/RwNKvPzSQX

Kings had to swing for the fences with Otto Porter. Fits their player timeline perfectly. High character. Very close with Garrett Temple.

True. But is a 3rd option worth max money? I may be overthinking it. I do like him a lot. https://t.co/tUDJ9exmk5

It's important to note that Porter hasn't signed anything yet. Just been offered the max. Might still take a discount to stay with WAS

Repeating this... Otto Porter ranked 8th of 68 at SF in efficiency per-minute. He also is a top 15 guy in DEFRTG differentail among SFs.
