Otto “Easy Money” Porter Jr
No way
Edit: people are about to slate a guy who had season ending surgery like he or the FO planned it.
No surprise here
Cap experts out there: Does Otto opting-in (on a deal that used part of our MLE last season) place any limitations on our ability to offer exceptions this offseason?
Nice When healthy he looked pretty darn good
this guy better play 15 minutes per game next season
If he can be healthy and contribute off the bench, I’ll take it 🤷♂️
Shocker
FUCK
Gadzooks ladies and gents I for one am shocked
But honestly hope dude gets healthy. Lord knows we need the depth
He should just be hard capped at 15 minutes next season. Nurse played him 20+ minutes too many times.
He should be a magician with the way he disappeared from the team this season
Awhhh yeah someone choosing to stay with the raptors lol
that son of a bitch’
was honestly a big loss for us this season that no one really speaks of. He was to be a big part of the bench, and he’s a 3 + D player I’ve always liked. He did play well whenever he was on the court too.
I’m reminded he’s on this roster once every few months
okay now we need to draft wemby
This was one signing I was actually excited about. Could have used the bench depth instead of having to rely on an old Barton
Championship szn
Seems like this is a win for us from an asset management standpoint, no? Should allow us to trade him, would think someone would probably take that contract with only 1 year at that price
This guy was always injury prone, even when he was in Wizards.
Decent player in fantasy when active, but more often in the IL spot.
Get this bum out of here, hopefully we can use him as trade bait
Not surprised in the slightest he opted in, it was pretty obvious seeing his last contract was a vet min.
I also don’t expect him being healthy and he will injury something else again because he’s made of glass. If we got an actual 50-60 games that would be ok, but with him…..
Not a surprise but we need a backup shooter as he won’t play a full season.
Was it a left foot injury or a toe on a left foot injury? For some reason i thought it was a toe injury. How long do toes need to heal?
Injuries suck. Nothing we can do.
My beef with him is that he wasn’t even on the bench in a lot of games. Unless he couldn’t even sit straight because of his injury…
looooool he’s back
His agent the real MVP
I keep forgetting he’s even on the team lol
6m for him if heathy is a good deal imo
Straight thievery
Banking OPJ to be healthy will always be a double edged sword
we are saved
Unfortunate but expected. Hopefully won’t cost too much to dump
How the fuck did this injury prone dude get a player option?
Ching-ching-will-smith.gif
Honestly forgot about him, dude was invisible this season. Makes sense for him though.
