Porter posts 2nd straight 30-point game, Nuggets beat Spurs

LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. — Michael Porter Jr. had 30 points and 15 rebounds, and the Denver Nuggets rallied in the fourth quarter to beat the San Antonio Spurs 132-126 on Wednesday.

Nikola Jokic added 25 points and 11 assists. Jerami Grant finished with 22 points.

Two days after posting a career-high 37 points in Denver’s win over Oklahoma City, Porter stayed hot, scoring 10 of the Nuggets’ first 16 points against San Antonio. He credited Jokic's style of play for his success.

“If you know me, the Nuggets drafted me as a scorer,” Porter said.
