Porter started his week by setting a career high with 30 points on 10-of-18 shooting Wednesday in a win over Jacksonville State, going 4-for-6 from 3-point range and 6-for-6 from the free throw line.
The Houston native was a driving force in MTSU's win over FIU on Saturday, scoring 20 points with eight rebounds and four assists.
In addition to his 51.6 percent shooting from the floor, Porter made 50 percent of his 3-point attempts (6-12) and 85.7 percent of his free throws (12-14). He also added two steals in each game.
