According to police sources with ABC, Porter returned early in the morning from a night out in Times Square, where he and Gondrezick were staying. Gondrezick was upset with how late he returned and locked the door. Once he entered with the help of hotel security, Porter is said to have beat her up.
The extent of her injuries aren’t clear at this time. But the former No. 4 overall pick in the WNBA draft is pressing domestic charges.
Last season, Porter had the best statistical season of his career with Houston. Averaging a career-high 19.2 points to go along with 5.3 rebounds and 5.7 assists per game.
