De’Anthony Melton likened the Golden State Warriors adding Kristaps Porzingis to the advantage the San Antonio Spurs have with Victor Wembanyama, pointing to the matchup problems a uniquely skilled big man creates.
“He’s a matchup nightmare for a lot of teams. You see with the Spurs, you have Wemby, who’s 7-a lot, and the stuff he can do and the matchup nightmares he brings to the table.
“So I think (Porzingis being) out there, it’s just going to give us a lot of size and a lot of mismatches that we need. Some teams he’s gonna kill just cause they can’t physically match up with him.”
Porzingis has played 10 seasons for 5 teams, including the Mavericks and Knicks. He has averaged 19.6 points and 7.7 rebounds in 518 regular-season games.
He was selected to play in 1 All-Star game, and has won 1 NBA championship.
