Portis registered 22 points (9-11 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-3 FT), 10 rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal across 32 minutes during Tuesday's 114-109 victory over the Magic.
ANALYSIS
After a modest start to the season, Portis has gotten things going in the right direction over the past two games. He has played at least 30 minutes in each of the two games, averaging 22.5 points, 7.5 rebounds, 1.0 steals, 2.0 blocks and 3.5 three-pointers. While he won't be this good every night, it is clear that what he had been doing in the previous weeks was largely below expectations.
