Michael Porter Jr. said he had to leave his home and call police after Celina Powell allegedly posted his address to her Instagram account, escalating a dispute that began when she was left out of his livestream. The 27-year-old Brooklyn Nets forward said he is now looking for a new place to live.
Porter said he was alerted after details of his home address appeared on Powell’s Instagram and told viewers, “She leaked my addy. She put my address on her Instagram.” He added that the fallout was immediate: “Plus she leaked the addy on Insta so now I feel like we’ve got to move … I’ve never seen anybody act like that.”
The episode landed while Porter was already living publicly in two worlds. He plays for the Nets, but he also streams and moves in influencer circles outside basketball, a mix that can blur the line between entertainment and exposure. On March 3, 2026, he was photographed with Brooklyn against the Miami Heat at Kaseya Center in Miami, Florida, and on March 7 he celebrated with Danny Wolf after the Nets beat the Detroit Pistons at Little Caesars Arena in Detroit, Michigan.
Porter framed the dispute as retaliation, saying Powell was upset after being removed from the stream and wanted back in. “She’s mad because we had her leave the stream and she wanted to be one the stream. … Is that not the craziest thing you’ve ever seen?” he said. He then made clear how serious he took the posting: “Now I’ve got to pack and get up out of here. We’ve got to dip and go to a new location.”
What makes the story matter is not the feud itself but the risk that followed it. Porter’s account shows how quickly a livestream spat can spill into real-world safety concerns when a home address is pushed out to millions of followers. In this case, he said the line was crossed, police were called, and a move became necessary. That is the part of the story that remains unresolved: once an address is out, there is no simple way to pull it back.
