Michael Porter Jr. Still Under The Weather
11 months agoDenver Nuggets forward Michael Porter Jr. (illness) is probable ahead of Tuesday's game in Indiana. The 25-year-old carried a questionable designation for the same reason before Sunday's meeting with the Washington Wizards. However, he was out there, finishing with 19 points, five rebounds, two blocks, and two steals in 32 minutes. Of course, that doesn't necessarily mean he'll be healthy for Tuesday's contest, although it would be surprising if he didn't suit up. At any rate, if Porter can't go, Peyton Watson, averaging 17 points in two starts this year, would likely fill his spot in the lineup. But with Nikola Jokic, Jamal Murray, and Aaron Gordon (shoulder) on the floor, it will be tough for Watson to do anything meaningful for fantasy managers.
