Denver Nuggets’ Michael Porter Jr. pokes fun at ‘jealous’ Atlanta Hawks star

When Atlanta Hawks star Trae Young roamed the sidelines for Game 6 of the Western Conference Finals, he made headlines.

But he also made time to speak with his best friend, Denver Nuggets forward Michael Porter Jr.

“Me and Trae Young have talked a lot,” Porter said via the Free Dawkins YouTube channel on May 29. “He’s jealous since I’m in the Finals and he’s only made the Eastern Conference Finals. We were talking about that in L.A. He came to our last game in L.A.”

The twosome played together on the AAU circuit and was quite the formidable force with each providing a diverse skill set on the basketball floor.
