Kristaps Porzingis or Zinger for short is slowly but surely winning over fans across the nation. Maybe it is his easy breezy personality or the fact he gets a kick out of fans booing him, but whatever the case he is a hard player not to like.
In the end, what happens on the court is what matters the most. If he plays well everything will be great, if he crashes and burns no amount of Meek Mill or Drake will save him.
But, here is what he had to say about Nicki Minaj’s boyfriend via Bleacher Report.
On Adjusting to American Culture
The adjustment has been easier because I had American teammates in Spain, and I listened to hip-hop my whole life. I listen to a lot of Drake and Meek Mill before games. So I pretty much know the culture and my English is pretty good. But handshakes are different. It’s the hug and then back with your hand. It’s pretty cool.
His English is better than a lot of people who were born in the states. Hopefully, he won’t start yelling at everyone in the huddle like Meek yells on his tracks.
