Houston Rockets’ Kevin Porter Jr. allegedly fractured girlfriend’s vertebra in NYC hotel beating, released on $75K bail



Houston Rockets guard Kevin Porter Jr.’s girlfriend was **left with a broken bone in her neck** after the NBA player allegedly [**relentlessly beat and strangled her**](https://nypost.com/2023/09/11/houston-rockets-guard-kevin-porter-busted-for-assaulting-former-wnba-player-girlfriend-kysre-gondrezick-sources/) at their Big Apple hotel, prosecutors said Tuesday — as he was released on $75,000 bail.

Porter, 23, is accused of [**repeatedly punching** his 26-year-old girlfriend, Kysre Gondrezick](https://nypost.com/2023/09/12/sister-of-kysre-gondrezick-threatens-rockets-kevin-porter-jr/), **in the face and choking her until she couldn’t breathe** inside their room at the four-star Millennium Hilton New York Hotel in Midtown early Monday, according to a criminal complaint.

The **savage beatdown** allegedly only stopped when Gondrezick — a former WNBA player – fled the room and **was found bloodied and bruised** by hotel employees in the hall, prosecutors said during Porter’s arraignment in Manhattan Criminal Court.

The pro baller, whose full name is Bryan Kevin Porter Jr., was arrested at about 6.30 a.m. Monday and **charged with assault and strangulation** after cops received a 911 call about the alleged attack.

His girlfriend told officers that Porter had **struck her with a closed fist multiple times** — leaving her with an **inches-long gash** above her right eye, prosecutors said.

The hoopster then allegedly **“forcefully” squeezed** Gondrezick’s neck **with his hands**, “causing her to **experience difficulty breathing, redness and bruising to her neck, and substantial pain**,” the complaint charges.

The alleged assault on Gondrezick took place after the couple had gone out Sunday night and later returned to the hotel, police sources have said.

Gondrezick **was asleep** when her pro baller beau allegedly **started beating her**, the sources added.

    POS started beating on a woman when said woman was asleep?! Idk how you get more cowardly than that. Stick the sombitch in gen pop please!

    That’s a psychopath beating

    One thing from the story I don’t get is how did he get locked out? Did he forget his card. Did she do the latch? Would’ve she had to wake up to undo the latch for the hotel employee to get in

  4. Regardless of what the NYPD does, the League will have to be much more strong handed than they were with the Bridges case. This case seems more severe as well. His actions signal intent to take life.

    Every new article shows more and more how sick this guy is

    he needs to be out of the league expeditiously. Hopefully the team/the league do the right thing here and don’t let him come back like Bridges

    This guy is too far gone. He literally had all the resources and all the help he needed. Everyone wanted to give him a second chance at life knowing his troubling past and all he did was disappoint every single one of us. Fuck you KPJ.
