There has been quite a groundswell around Michael Porter Jr., as the narrative around his career has completely shifted since his trade to Brooklyn. Over his time with the Nuggets, MPJ was thought to be a good, but not great role player, a solid third or fourth option, but little more than an elite floor spacer and shooter.
But that has all changed since the trade over the summer that sent him to the Nets. Now, Mike has become a focal point of an offense; he’s putting up monster numbers with great efficiency, and is actually impacting winning on a young, rebuilding team.
