Guard for the Houston Rockets Kevin Porter Jr. brutally attacked his fiancée, leaving her with a shattered neck vertebra

It has been reported that after hitting and choking his girlfriend inside a Manhattan hotel, Houston Rockets guard Kevin Porter Jr. left her with a fractured bone in her neck. He was granted freedom on a $75,000 bond.


According to reports, Kevin, 23, repeatedly struck Kysre Gondrezick, a former WNBA player, in the face. Kysre is 26 years old. According to the New York Post, he is also accused of choking her until she was unable to breathe.

After receiving a 911 call reporting an attack, police were able to detain the 23-year-old professional baller at approximately 6:30 am. According to NYPD and police sources, the incident happened at the four-star Millennium Hilton New York Hotel at 1 UN Plaza in Midtown.

Authorities discovered Kysre after she had managed to escape the room while bleeding and wounded.

Kysre Gondrezick had a shattered neck vertebra.

Prosecutors claim that Kysre informed police that Kevin had repeatedly struck her with a clenched hand, leaving a significant gash above her right eye.

Strangulation and violence are the charges against Kevin. According to the lawsuit, he “forcefully” gripped Gondrezick’s neck, “causing her to experience difficulty breathing, redness and bruising to her neck, and substantial pain.” Kysre was transferred to NYU Langone Medical Center, where specialists determined that she had broken a neck vertebra. Kevin must appear in court once again on October 16.

“We are in the process of gathering information surrounding the matter involving Kevin Porter Jr.,” the Rockets said in a statement after the attack. At this time, we are unable to comment more.

In a statement acknowledging Kevin’s arrest, the NBA said: “The league office is in contact with the Houston Rockets and in the process of gathering more information.”

Kevin agreed to a four-year contract extension for $82.5 million before the previous season, but the agreement states that only the $15.9 million pay for this season is guaranteed. This was designed with Kevin’s previous off-court problems in mind.
