Thunder reportedly among teams linked to Kevin Porter Jr.

With Zion Williamson set to play for the New Orleans Pelicans and Ja Morant bound for Memphis, the rest of the 2019 NBA Draft continues to take shape. Currently sitting at No. 21 in the draft, the Oklahoma City Thunder still have time before they make their selection.

One of the players expected to be available later in the draft is Kevin Porter Jr. The 6-foot-6 wing out of USC has the combination of talent and build to be a contributor in the NBA. Among the picks expected to go around the Thunder’s pick, he may have the highest ceiling. The major drawback with Porter Jr. are concerns with his character.

But it appears Thunder are considering Porter Jr. at No. 21, per Jonathan Wasserman of Bleacher Report:

Lot of uncertainty about where Kevin Porter Jr. ends up. Teams I’ve heard linked to him: Miami, Boston, OKC, Cleveland, Brooklyn. All over the map.
