Michael Porter Jr. Remains Out On Friday
Denver Nuggets forward Michael Porter Jr. (heel) will miss an 11th consecutive game Friday against the Lakers. The 24-year-old continues to work his way back from a left heel strain. Bruce Brown has played a very active role in Porter Jr.'s absence and should continue to do so Friday as well. As a very versatile player, Brown can help fantasy teams in many ways, and he should be guaranteed to get a massive workload against a desperate Lakers team.
Dec 17, 2022 • 1:31 AM | RotoBallerMichael Porter Jr. Continues To Progress, Won’t Play Wednesday
Denver Nuggets small forward Michael Porter Jr. (heel) was able to shoot and do light work during Monday's practice, per Patrick Saunders of the Denver Post, but he will miss Wednesday's contest against Washington, marking a 10th consecutive absence. Bruce Brown has primarily taken over Porter's role on the wing and among the starting five, giving him some short-term season-long value as he has averaged 12.6 points per game across an average of 33 minutes per night as a starter. Porter has impressed offensively when available this year, particularly from behind the arc, as he has knocked down 2.9 threes per game while shooting at a 42.7 percent clip from deep. With Denver mum about when a potential return could come, fantasy managers will want to check back for word as it becomes available.

Denver Nuggets forward Michael Porter Jr. (heel) will miss his seventh consecutive game and eighth this season while he continues to deal with heel issues. Reports say that he suffered a heel strain and it seems like it's giving him more issues than was previously expected. While he's been out, Bruce Brown Jr. has entered the starting lineup and Vlatko Cancar has seen increased playing time off of the bench. Both of them would be good streaming options in all formats.

Denver next's matchup after this one will be on Tuesday against the Dallas Mavericks, although it's unknown if he'll be ready to go for that one. That said, until Porter returns, Bruce Brown should continue to fill the void in the lineup. Brown has averaged 13.7 points, 5.1 assists, and 4.7 rebounds while shooting 47.5% from deep in 10 starts this year, making him a viable fantasy option in all formats.
Dec 4, 2022 • 3:27 AM | RotoBallerMichael Porter Jr. Available On Friday Night
Denver Nuggets forward Michael Porter Jr. (back) is available versus the Utah Jazz and will start. The 24-year-old got the night off against the Lakers on Wednesday to rest. Considering he entered 2022-23 coming off a season-ending back injury, Porter will sit sporadically moving ahead. The 2018 first-round pick is still having a fantastic year, averaging 18 points and five boards while shooting 50% from deep, so fantasy managers must keep him starting on Friday night.

Denver Nuggets forward Michael Porter Jr. (back) is listed as questionable to play Wednesday against the Los Angeles Lakers. Porter, who has had back injuries in the past, has played an average of 29 minutes per game so far this year, and this could be an opportunity for Denver to rest him.
