  • Otto Porter: Brings end to career

    Porter announced his retirement from the NBA on Monday.

    Waived earlier Monday by the Jazz after he was unable to work out a buyout agreement with the team prior to the March 1 deadline for postseason eligibility, Porter won't end up suiting up for Utah and will call an end to his career. The No. 3 overall pick by the Wizards in the 2013 NBA Draft, Porter's career spanned 11 seasons and included five stops, with the 30-year-old forward averaging 10.3 points and 4.9 rebounds in 527 regular-season games. Porter enjoyed his best seasons with the Wizards and was an underrated fantasy contributor at his peak due to his efficiency scoring and plus contributions in the three-pointers and steals categories, but injuries have slowed him since leaving Washington. In his statement Monday, Porter acknowledged that his body wasn't allowing him to play at the level he expected, which prompted his retirement. Before Utah acquired him from Toronto in February, Porter had appeared in just 15 games for the Raptors this season, averaging 11.6 minutes per contest.

  • Otto Porter: Waived by Jazz

    The Jazz waived Porter on Monday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.

    The writing has been on the wall for a while, as Porter has been away from the team and never made an appearance for Utah after joining the Jazz at the trade deadline. Due to the timing of this transaction, Porter won't be eligible for the postseason if he's picked up by a contender. He was previously with Toronto this season, making 15 appearances with averages of 2.6 points and 1.9 rebounds in 11.6 minutes.

  • Jazz's Otto Porter: Won't play Thursday

    Porter is out for Thursday's game versus the Hornets due to being away from the team, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.

    Porter has yet to make his Utah debut since being acquired from the Raptors on Feb. 8. The fact that the veteran forward isn't with the Jazz coming out of the All-Star break suggests that he could be looking to negotiate a buyout agreement with the team.

  • Jazz's Otto Porter: Outside of Wednesday's rotation

    Jazz head coach Will Hardy said Porter isn't in his rotation plans for Wednesday's game against the Lakers, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.

    Porter had been sidelined since Dec. 30 with foot and knee injuries, but he cleared the injury report for Wednesday's tilt. However, as Larsen reports, Porter will have to go through a reconditioning process and get acclimated with his new team before breaking into the rotation.

  • Jazz's Otto Porter: Good to go Wednesday

    Porter (foot) isn't on the injury report for Wednesday's game versus the Lakers.

  • Jazz's Otto Porter: Ruled out for Monday

    Porter (foot) won't play Monday against Golden State.

    The left foot injury is a new one for Porter, whose Jazz debut will have to wait until at least Wednesday against the Lakers. Even if Porter is cleared to play in that game, he's unlikely to be featured in head coach Will Hardy's rotation.

  • Jazz's Otto Porter: Iffy for Monday

    Porter is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Warriors due to left foot soreness.

    Porter previously missed time since knee sprain but was cleared for action Jan. 20. However, he hadn't played in any games for Toronto since being available before the Raptors dealt him to the Jazz on Thursday. Porter is back on the Jazz injury report with a new health concern, but even once he overcomes the foot issue, he's unlikely to be included in Utah's rotation.

  • Jazz's Otto Porter: Headed to Utah

    Porter was traded from the Raptors to the Jazz along with Kira Lewis and a 2024 first-round pick Thursday in exchange for Kelly Olynyk and Ochai Agbaji, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

    Porter began the 2023-24 season on the fringes of Toronto's rotation and hasn't played any minutes since the start of the calendar year. While he missed several weeks in early January due to a knee injury, he was unable to generate a role for the team upon his return, even after the Raptors traded Pascal Siakam and OG Anunoby. While the Jazz traded several solid pieces as part of Thursday's trade, it seems unlikely that Porter will garner considerable playing time in Utah.

  • Raptors' Otto Porter: Cleared for action

    Porter (knee) is available Saturday against the Knicks.

    Porter has been sidelined since Dec. 30 due to a right knee sprain. The veteran logged just 174 total minutes of action across 15 appearances before suffering the injury, but he'll return to a new-look squad with Pascal Siakam and OG Anunoby having been traded to Indiana and New York, respectively.

  • Raptors' Otto Porter: Now expected to play Saturday

    Porter (knee) has been upgraded to probable for Saturday's game versus the Knicks.

    Porter has been upgraded from doubtful to probable Saturday after missing the previous 10 games with a right knee sprain. Porter will likely compete for bench minutes in Toronto's forward rotation if he's upgraded to available.

  • Raptors' Otto Porter: Upgraded to questionable

    Porter (knee) has been upgraded to questionable ahead of Saturday's game against the Knicks.

    Porter was listed as doubtful Friday, so he seems to be trending in the right direction, although it wouldn't be shocking if Saturday's matchup against New York comes too soon for his return. Even when he does become available, he's expected to play a secondary role off the bench, so he shouldn't be targeted in most fantasy formats once he's back to full health.
