Michael Porter Jr. 2018-19 Player Outlook
6 years agoThe Denver Nuggets may have gotten a steal when forward Michael Porter Jr. fell to the end of the lottery on draft night, but that doesn’t mean that the former Missouri Tiger will play much of a role for Denver this season. Coming off a back injury that kept him out for most of his one-year college career, the Nuggets will be careful with Porter and have suggested that he could sit out for a big chunk of his rookie season. While dynasty owners should be very interested in Porter, people playing in re-draft leagues would be smart to steer clear of him. With a handful of rising young stars already on the team, Denver won’t risk their long-term success by playing Porter before they’re fully confident in his health.
