Porter in action for the Wizards

While Porter is by no means just a catch-and-shoot specialist, the bulk of his points have historically come from those situations with Wall running the show. Porter reached the realm of elite shooters last season when he averaged 13.4 points per game in the regular season at a 51.6% field goal percentage and a scorching 43.4% from behind the arc.

This season, he has upped his scoring rate to 15.1 points at nearly identical 50.3% and 44.1% shooting splits. Moreover, since John Wall's injury, Porter has upped the ante to average 19.3 points per game on splits of 53.5% and 43.0%.

The 3rd pick in the 2013 draft is finally starting to live up to his draft position. If he carries his form into the postseason (unlike last season, when he shot a beggarly 28.2% from 3-point range), the Wizards have a real shot at making a deep run this season.
