After missing seven weeks with an injured toe on his left foot, Kevin Porter Jr. is back in the Houston Rockets lineup. But the fourth-year guard says he probably won’t be pain-free until next season.
The type of rest he needs for the toe to fully heal may not be possible until an even longer period off, like the upcoming NBA offseason. But Porter, who starts at point guard for the rebuilding Rockets, says there’s still too much to play for to consider an early shutdown.
