Nets forward Michael Porter Jr. said his personal life took a hit when his ex, former Disney Channel star Madison Pettis, publicly called him a “psychopath.”

Porter responded to Pettis’ comments after she opened the floodgates on their relationship during a March appearance on the “In Your Dreams With Owen Thiele” podcast.

“That was crazy. I wasn’t feeling that at all because, bro, we dated for what, three months, and nothing happened crazy,” Porter said during a Monday appearance on the “One Night with Steiny” podcast with internet personalities Aaron Steinberg and Celina Powell.

Michael Porter Jr. addresses his ex-girlfriend, actress Madison Pettis, for calling him a “psychopath,” explaining that he was 16 when he dated her and he has no clue why she said that about him 😮👀

“I don’t know why 10 years later she’s getting on a podcast talking about, ‘He’s a psychopath.’ She’s scaring all the jawns away.

“But come on, bro, 10 years later, I’m 16 or 17, I don’t even think I lost my virginity yet, dawg. Not til college.”

Porter, who referred to Pettis as “what’s her name,” brought up his ex’s remarks.

He also explained that they met when Pettis messaged him after seeing Steph Curry give him a birthday shoutout on Instagram.

The actress said in March she broke up with Porter “because he was a psychopath.”

“I do think a lot of athletes are not great partners, but I wouldn’t rule it out because I do love what they do. I would have respect for them and love to talk to them about their passion.”

Pettis, who did not name her ex, dated Porter from 2016 through mid-2017 — before the Denver Nuggets selected him with the No. 14 overall pick in the in 2018 NBA Draft. 

He won a championship with Denver in 2023 and was traded to the Nets last June.

He made headlines this week after his address was leaked by Powell.
