Atlantic Notes: Portis, Durant, Embiid, Lowry

Bobby Portis played for the Knicks during the 2019/20 season and it's not out of the question he'll return for a second stint, according to Marc Berman of the New York Post. Portis is widely expected to decline his $3.8MM player option, which would make him an unrestricted free agent this summer. It wouldn't be a shock if the Knicks were interested in the Bucks' power forward, who averaged 11.4 PPG and 7.1 RPG this season. They declined a $15MM option on Portis last offseason but were open to him returning at a reduced price, Berman adds.
