Michael Porter Jr. Records 24-Point Night On Monday
4 years agoDenver Nuggets forward Michael Porter Jr. had 24 points on 11-for-21 shooting in Monday's loss to Golden State, adding nine rebounds and two assists in 38 minutes of action. Most of his misses came from deep as he shot 1-for-7 from downtown. Porter Jr. is having a very productive month, averaging close to a double-double and shooting 53.5 percent from the field. He will try and keep it up against Miami next on Wednesday. The Heat have done a good job defensively against opposing forwards this season, so this is an uncomfortable matchup for Porter Jr., but he should go off for a big line in Friday's meeting with the struggling Rockets.
