Could the Denver Nuggets have made a big mistake drafting the injured Missouri star back in 2018? Possibly. But after finally getting healthy, Michael Porter Jr. looks like a keeper in Denver. His ability to stretch the floor and create his own shot is exactly what his team lacked in their seven-game defeat at the hand’s of the Portland Trailblazers in the playoffs.
Will Barton and Jamal Murray need one more wing alongside Gary Harris to continue to offset some of the attention being received by Nikola Jokic. It has been well established that the Nuggets may indeed need to trade for another big star on the wing to comprise a traditional “big three” that can strike fear into any team.
