“I think of a young man that probably had a very frustrating year individually,” Malone said Tuesday on a Zoom teleconference video call with reporters.
“Here’s a guy that’s always been one of the top-rated players in his class and he comes to a team that won 54 games and has a lot of talented players in front of him,” Malone said of Porter. “He looks around the landscape of the NBA and sees all the players he was rated higher than or other players that maybe he used to give buckets. Getting a chance to play, and playing well, in his mind he hasn’t gotten that same opportunity.
“I think the greatest challenge for Michael is to understand that he is on a different path from some of those other players. He still has a chance to be a great player.”
