NextImg:Michael Porter Jr. prepared for Nets ‘growing pains’ with new role, NYC life — and podcast changes

For Nets forward Michael Porter Jr., coming to Brooklyn is going to be a huge adjustment, both on the court and off, athletically and culturally.

A third or fourth wheel on a championship team now expected to score and lead a tanking lottery team filled with teenagers. A self-proclaimed country boy from Missouri coming to culturally diverse New York.

It’s been a process. And it’ll continue to be.

“It always seemed super overwhelming, but since I got here, I’ve figured it out a little bit. I’ve enjoyed it. It’s an adjustment, for sure,” said Porter, who told YES Network he’s been spending $250 a day on Ubers.
