According to a criminal complaint, Houston Rockets guard Kevin Porter Jr., 23, is accused of repeatedly punching his 26-year-old girlfriend, former WNBA player Kysre Gondrezick, in the face and choking her until she couldn’t breathe inside their room at the four-star Millennium Hilton New York Hotel in Midtown. At the arraignment today, Tuesday September 12th, the Kevin Porter Jr. bail set at $75,000 was a bit lower than prosecutors asked for.

Gondrezick allegedly ran from the room and was found bloodied and bruised by hotel employees in the hall.

The athlete, whose full name is Bryan Kevin Porter Jr., was arraigned in Manhattan Criminal Court on charges of assault and strangulation.

Doctors at NYU Langone Medical Center, allegedly confirmed Gondrezick suffered a fractured vertebrae in her neck, cuts to her face, and bruises.

Prosecutors with the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office had requested Porter’s bail be set at $100,000 during his arraignment, citing a history of alleged abuse against his girlfriend – including an incident where he rammed his car into hers.

Porter Jr.’s bail was set at $75,000 and a full temporary restraining order against him was also granted. He allegedly had previously attacked his girlfriend and that was taken in account when setting bail.

Porter is due back in court Oct. 16.

Kalabrya Gondrezick-Haskins, Dwayne Haskins widow and Kysre Gondrezick’s sister, called out Kevin Porter Jr. On social media with a post issuing several direct threats.
