Last year, he claimed that some NBA players secretly pursue relationships with transgender women or men.“I hear wild stories about some of these dudes, … their fetishes get so crazy,” he said (per Outsports). “They might be a straight man but they’ve done so much stuff with pretty girls, and they have so much access to pretty girls, that now they’re over here messing with [trans women], or now they’re over here messing with dudes.”Earlier this offseason, however, Porter was reportedly spotted with a transgender model at a luxury hotel in Taipei.
