Michael Porter Jr updated for those who want to know

FYI

There's a lot of buzz around the locker room about MPJ being able to start practice mid January and return in time for the Kentucky game on Feb 3.  That will give him 9 games then post season.  That's the latest.

If I were him, I'd be selfish and just sit out. Too much to risk before draft time.

Not sure I would put it quite like that, but yes, seems a huge risk for 9 games and the post season, if there is a post season, no offense, too early to know.

This is the decision the Porter's will need to make.  I'm guessing that the decision will come down to how well we are playing.

Wouldn't Porter have to show the NBA that he is back from his injury?

At some point, yes.
