Cool,cool!
Regardless of what the rating will be end up being, I think Porzingis should have both 3-point & Di attributes.
He is the only player in the league averaging almost 2 made threes per game (average just dropped to 1.9 recently) together with over 2 blocks per game. Only other player getting close to that is Durant. And Porzingis is also shooting basically same percentage!
Porzingis: 1.9 3PTM, 38.1% 3PT, 2.0 BLK Durant: 2.0 3PTM, 38.7% 3PT, 1.7 BLK
And even if you drop the cut-off to 1.5 blocks and threes, only Horford and BroLo will be included, so this is not something any three point shooting big man can do. Porzingis is pretty special :)

Love porzingod, and do think his rating should be higher. But i don't think he should have the interior defense attribute.
Yes he does have the blocks per game. But from watching him play, I don't believe he's a force on 1-1 defense. Don't have the stats right now to back this up, may or may not find some later

Maybe, he should get a better rating now and the interior defense some time in the future. I do believe he could get it eventually. Haven't seen much of Porzingis this season but he looked like a solid interior defender in 2015-16 the times I saw him in my opinion. Though he made his height count to intimidate opponents.

While they sadly haven't updated for this year, Nylon Calculus has Porzingis' 2015-16 Point saved per 36 as 1.33, which ranks 15th. That's pretty good.
Though the better version of that metric, using now unavailable SportVu data for the 1st half of last season, puts him at 4.04 raw points saved per 36, which ranks 50th.
That said, the threshold for the Di attribute is one of the lower ones.

I don't think those are good stats to look at since Knicks team defense is so horrible. They are at bottom 5th or 6th in defense rating and that drags down Porzingis stats also. But when you look individual rim protecting stats at: stats.nba.com/players/defense-dash-overall/#!?sort=D_FGA&dir=1 You can see that opponents are shooting only 40.8% against KP. That's -5.2% less than they should be shooting. Looking at the top of that list only Gobert, AD and Embiid of the big guys have a bigger influence on opponent FG% when contesting a shot. Edit.. meant the stats from Yao. not Allan
