Who is Michael Porter Jr. Girlfriend? His Parents, Family, Salary, Jersey
American professional basketball player Michael Porter Jr. plays for the NBA’s Denver Nuggets. He was a Missouri Tigers basketball player in college. One of the top prospects in the 2017 class was Porter. The Nuggets picked him with the 14th overall pick in the 2018 NBA Draft. On March 8, 2018, Porter made his official comeback in the SEC tournament quarterfinals. Porter would participate in the team’s loss against Florida State in the opening round of the 2018 NCAA Division I men’s basketball tournament.
Porter, however, started both games rather than coming off the bench to play as he had on opening night, primarily out of prudence. The Denver Nuggets chose Porter with the 14th overall pick on June 21, 2018. Due to information about his health, he dropped from being the potential first-overall pick to the 14th pick with the Nuggets.
In relation to his back issues, the Nuggets also considered the prospect of having him miss the entirety of his first NBA season. Porter and the Nuggets agreed to a multi-year contract on July 3, 2018.
