Michael Porter Jr. is destroying the narrative that he’s a selfish player

The Denver Nuggets closed out the Portland Trail Blazers in Portland Thursday night, and Michael Porter Jr. remained on the bench down the stretch in the fourth quarter. Had he done something to anger his coach? That would be hard to believe after making six three-pointers in the first quarter to single-handedly keep Denver in the game. It turns out, Porter was showing again what a great teammate he’s become in Denver: he wanted the win more than the glory.

Asked Michael Porter Jr about Monte Morris and JaMychal Green tonight.
