During an NBA meeting with the league's commissioner, Adam Silver, MPJ leaked Silver's phone number on Snapchat, which he thought could get him kicked out of the league.
"I'm thinking I'm getting kicked out of the league," Porter said on the latest episode of The Old Man and the Three podcast.
"They had me walk up there in front of all these guys and apologize. That was the most embarrassing time of my life," he added.
Despite this story going viral, Porter faced no consequences, and he's already in his seventh year in the NBA.
This season, he's having his best year so far, averaging 25.1 points, 7.2 rebounds, and 3.2 assists for the Nets.
