Michael Porter Jr. Says Ceiling Plateaued in Denver Before Trade to Nets
Michael Porter Jr. has expressed enthusiasm about his trade to the Brooklyn Nets, acknowledging that his growth with the Denver Nuggets had plateaued despite the team's championship success. He attributed this plateau to Denver’s playing style, which heavily revolves around the two-man game between Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray, limiting his opportunities to expand his role. Porter, who was traded for Cameron Johnson and a 2032 first-round pick, sees Brooklyn as a chance to take on a larger offensive role and further develop his game. He reflected fondly on his seven years with Denver, where he matured from a top prospect with injury concerns into a reliable starter and key contributor to the Nuggets’ 2023 title run. Porter also noted his personal relationship with Johnson, highlighting the amicable nature of the trade. The Nuggets, meanwhile, are gearing up for another championship push with new additions including Johnson, Bruce Brown, Tim Hardaway Jr., and Jonas Valančiūnas.
