Bobby Portis Jr. (born February 10, 1995) is an American professional basketball player who plays as a power forward for the Milwaukee Bucks in the NBA. He began his college career with the Arkansas Razorbacks, earning SEC Player of the Year honors in 2015. Portis was selected 22nd overall in the 2015 NBA Draft by the Chicago Bulls. He won an NBA championship with the Bucks in 2021.

In February 2025, Portis was suspended for 25 games without pay after testing positive for Tramadol, a pain-relief medication not approved under the NBA’s anti-drug policy. He mistakenly took Tramadol instead of the approved medication, Toradol, while treating an elbow injury. Portis expressed remorse for the mistake and accepted the suspension, which began with the Bucks’ game against the Los Angeles Clippers.
