Pops for 28 in Sunday's win Porter finished Sunday's 108-102 win over the Nets with 28 points (10-18 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 3-3 FT), nine rebounds and three assists over 31 minutes.

Impact It's his best scoring performance since he dropped 29 on the Clippers on Feb. 26. Porter's production has been a bit erratic in March -- he's scored 12 points or fewer three times this month -- but in nine games he's averaging 18.3 points, 5.2 boards, 2.9 threes and 1.4 assists while shooting 54.5 percent from the floor and 44.1 percent from beyond the arc.

Ho-hum performance in loss Porter closed with 11 points (4-10 FG, 3-7 3Pt) and five rebounds across 30 minutes during Saturday's 116-110 loss to the Knicks.

Impact Porter played 30 minutes in the loss, but outside of his three triples, he offered basically nothing. On the whole, it's been a somewhat disappointing season for Porter, who is currently sitting outside the top 100 in nine-category leagues. He remains a must-roster talent, although his inability to expand his overall fantasy game is a little concerning. At this point, he should be looked at as a player who can help with points, rebounds and three-pointers only.

Continues to shoot efficiently Porter finished Tuesday's 125-110 loss to the Raptors with 23 points (8-13 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, two assists and two steals in 33 minutes.

Impact Porter came through with better-than-usual numbers across the board Tuesday, as his points, three-pointers, rebounds, assists and steals totals all exceeded his season-long averages. The 24-year-old has stepped up his game since the All-Star break, which has been a welcome sight for the Nuggets while Jamal Murray has endured a bit of a rough patch.

Hits for 23 in Sunday's loss Porter produced 23 points (9-12 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, four assists and one steal in 23 minutes during Sunday's 122-120 loss to the Nets.

Impact After scoring only 19 total points over the prior two games, Porter returned to form Sunday, although it wasn't enough to end the Nuggets' brief losing skid. The fourth-year forward has scored 20 or more points in five of nine games since the All-Star break, averaging 18.2 points, 5.1 boards and 2.9 threes over that stretch. It's worth noting that Porter sat for much of the fourth quarter and saw fewer than 25 minutes for the third straight game.

Available to play Porter (illness) will be available to play Wednesday versus Chicago.

Impact Porter is a bit under the weather, but he'll gut it out and get out there for Wednesday's game. He played through the illness Monday and came through with 20 points, five rebounds, four triples, one steal and two turnovers across 32 minutes, so he's safe to activate in fantasy leagues.

Takes part in shootaround Porter (illness) participated in shootaround Wednesday, Harrison Wind of TheDNVR.com reports.

Impact Given the reason behind Porter's designation, his inclusion in shootaround backs his probable designation for the evening's contest. Barring a downswing in his health leading up to the opening tip, expect Porter to maintain his usual spot in Denver's starting five Wednesday versus the Bulls.

MARCH 8 • ROTOWIRE

Listed as probable for Wednesday Porter (illness) is probable for Wednesday's matchup against the Bulls.

Impact Porter played through the illness Monday and logged his fifth 20-plus-point game over his last seven appearances. The sharpshooter is expected to suit up again Wednesday and should garner his usual role versus Chicago, though fantasy managers should still confirm Porter's status ahead of the 9:00 p.m. ET tipoff.

Impact Porter battled through an illness leading up to the opening tip, but he proceeded to suit up and posted his fifth 20-plus-point game over his last seven appearances. During that stretch, he's averaging 20.6 points and 6.0 rebounds while shooting 55.3 percent from the field and 46.3 percent from deep.

Should go Monday Porter (illness) is expected to play Monday against the Raptors, Eric Koreen of The Athletic reports.

Impact Porter was initially added to the injury report as questionable due to an illness, but he appears to be trending in the right direction. Expect a final decision from the team on his status closer to tipoff.

MARCH 6 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable with illness Porter is questionable for Wednesday against the Raptors due to an illness.

Impact He's a late addition to the injury report, so it's possible the Nuggets wait and see how he feels during warmups. If Porter is unable to play, we could see Bruce Brown and Jeff Green step up for the Nuggets.

Cleared for Friday Porter (heel) is ready to roll against the Grizzlies on Friday.

Impact Porter and Aaron Gordon were both carrying probable tags coming into Friday but have since been cleared. Porter will look to build on his momentum after hitting a total of seven triples in his last two games.

MARCH 3 • ROTOWIRE

Likely to play against Memphis Porter is probable for Friday's game versus the Grizzlies due to left heel strain management.

Impact Porter continues to deal with a nagging heel injury but is expected to suit up Friday. The 24-year-old forward is averaging 19.3 points and 5.2 rebounds in 30.2 minutes across his last 10 games.

Efficient from field Tuesday Porter closed with 17 points (7-11 FG, 3-6 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal across 23 minutes during Tuesday's 133-112 win over Houston.

Impact Porter started Tuesday despite dealing with a heel strain and had a solid outing, missing just four of his 11 attempts from the field while also contributing in peripheral categories. The forward has scored at least 17 points in five of Denver's last six games and is firmly entrenched as Denver's third-best scoring threat behind Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray.
