Otto Porter Jr’s status – Questionable

Otto Porter Jr. has dealt with numerous foot injuries throughout his career. This most recent one has yet to fully heal, leaving the Golden State Warriors uncertain of when Porter will be able to return.

The 3-and-D wing has fulfilled his duties throughout the season by being the sturdy veteran presence the team needed. He has been huge in the playoffs, spacing the floor and hauling in some key rebounds.

Porter injured his foot against Memphis, sitting out Game 6 of the series. He then played the first two games of the Western Conference Finals, posting 11 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists in a Game 2 victory.

In Game 3, Porter once again tweaked his foot. The x-rays returned negative but the timetable for a return is uncertain. A week to rest could bode well for the vet.
