Cebuano Kris Porter graces the cover of Chalk Magazine July 2012 issue

4 Jul

Another Cebu product is set to invade the UAAP basketball scene. Kris Porter, who played for Sacred Heart School-Ateneo de Cebu (SHS-AdC) Passerelle Team, is going to play for the Ateneo Blue Eagles basketball team. The good-looking Cebuano hopes to follow the success of former UV Green Lancers Center Greg Slaughter in the famous school in Loyola Heights, Quezon City.  Porter is not new in the UAAP as he was a part of the Ateneo Blue Eaglets last year and he was a member of the UAAP Junior’s basketball Mythical Five along with fellow Cebuano Jerie Pingoy of FEU.

Porter is one of the few lucky Blue Eaglets who got elevated directly to the Senior’s team.  He will probably have limited action in his freshman year but he is expected to contribute whenever Coach Norman Black calls his number.  He will probably be featured in many publications with his unique mix of talent and good looks.  Just recently, he is on the cover of Chalk Magazine July 2012 edition along with DLSU‘s Gab Reyes.  Indeed, Kristoffer Porter is having a good start on his UAAP senior’s basketball journey.

Good luck, Kris!
