Biography

One year before the institution of the one-flap rule, you could count every bird picked up in the first round on one wing. In 2006, Michael Porter was added to that list, starting a career of bucking FBA trends. A dominant "bigfeather" at an all-avian university, Porter has developed an accurate shot from the corners, pinpointing threes off his fingertips. With the addition of the one-flap, he continues to be a useful weapon down low, proving the unique contribution of avians to the league.

He surprised everyone when he won the 3-Point Shootout at the 2013 All-Star Game, after being voted 11th in the online poll and getting in the contest at the last second due to three players declining to compete. Beating the top-seeded reigning champion Lucas Dupre, as well as All-Star sharpshooters Sarah Lancaster and Oliver Vance, he made history by becoming the first player in FBA history to win the contest from the eighth seed.
