The Cavaliers are finalizing a deal Thursday to send Porter (personal) to the Rockets for a future second-round pick, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
The 2019 first-round pick had yet for the Cavaliers this season due to a personal matter, but he rejoined the team last week. Shortly thereafter, Porter was involved in a conflict with team personnel, prompting the Cavaliers to put him on the trade block. Houston will take a chance on his talent for the small price of a future second-round pick, hoping the 20-year-old can become a part of their rebuilding effort. As a rookie with the Cavaliers last season, Porter averaged 10.0 points (on 44.2 percent shooting field), 3.2 rebounds, 2.2 assists, 1.1 triples and 0.9 steals across 23.2 minutes per contest.
The Cavs are expected to trade or release Porter following an incident in the locker room Friday, Jason Lloyd and Joe Vardon of The Athletic report.
The second-year guard has not played this season due to a personal issue, but he rejoined the team late last week and was on the bench in street clothes for Friday's game against the Knicks. At some point Friday night, Porter reportedly grew angry that the Cavs had given his old locker to recent addition Taurean Prince, and it led to an altercation between Porter and GM Koby Altman. This looks to be the final straw for Cleveland, which has attempted to help Porter with his off-court issues but is now actively looking to move on from the 20-year-old, who averaged 10.0 points and 3.2 rebounds in 23.2 minutes as a rookie. Talent-wise, Porter has plenty of upside, but the Cavs will likely have difficulty getting value in return given his temperament and non-basketball concerns.
Porter (personal) was on the bench in street clothes Friday during the Cavaliers' 106-103 win over the Knicks, Sam Amico of FortyEightMinutes.com reports.
Porter had been away from the Cavaliers since mid-December for personal reasons related to his Nov. 15 arrest, but the second-year wing now looks like he's ready to prepare for his season debut. According to Chris Fedor of The Cleveland Plain Dealer, Porter joined the Cavaliers for practice Thursday, with a team source indicating that the 20-year-old is being "worked back into the mix." Given how long he had been away from the team, Porter will likely need multiple practices to get his body conditioned for game action, but his presence with the Cavaliers could leave the door open for him to make his season debut next week. The No. 30 overall pick in the 2019 NBA Draft, Porter turned in a solid rookie campaign, averaging 10.0 points, 3.2 rebounds, 2.2 assists, 1.1 triples and 0.9 steals in 23.2 minutes per game over 50 appearances.
Porter (personal) is out for the remainder of the Cavaliers' road trip, and the team won't bring him back "until they believe he is emotionally ready to return and has done enough away-from-the-court self-care," Chris Fedor of Cleveland.com reports.
Both the organization and Porter have been quiet about his absence, but there's reason to believe it has to do in some part with his arrest in mid-November and related personal challenges. According to Fedor: "Until [the team] feels comfortable and see what they need out of Porter, he will not play. It's as simple -- and complicated -- as that."

It'll be another missed game for Porter to begin the season, and it remains very much unclear when he'll return to the team. The Cavs head out on a six-game road trip that begins Thursday in Indianapolis, so it's quite possible Porter could miss several more games, as practice time will likely be fairly limited over the next two weeks.
Porter (personal) is out for Sunday's game against the 76ers.

In addition to Porter, the Cavaliers exercised the third-year options for Darius Garland and Dylan Windler, while Collin Sexton's fourth-year option was also picked up.

Porter (personal) won't play in Friday's preseason game against the Knicks, Chris Fedor of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
Charges against Porter were recently dropped in connection with a a car crash on an interstate south of Cleveland, but he will remain out for the preseason finale. The 20-year-old will hope to suit open Wednesday for the team's regular season debut against Charlotte.
The charges stemming from Porter's car accident in November have been dropped, Marla Ridenour of the Akron Beacon Journal reports. However, Bobby Marks of ESPN notes that the league can still punish Porter with a suspension or fine.
Porter, who flipped his SUV along an interstate south of Cleveland, admitted fault for his failure to control the vehicle, and a grand jury declined to indict him on the felony gun charge plus misdemeanors of marijuana possession and driving without a license. Porter has been away from the team lately for personal reasons, which likely had to do with the aforementioned case. It's not immediately clear if he'll be available for Friday's preseason finale against the Knicks, but there's a good chance he'll suit up for the regular-season opener Dec. 23 against the Hornets.
Porter (personal) isn't with the team for the two preseason games this week in New York, Kelsey Russo of The Athletic reports.
