Plays through illness for 18 points Porter recorded 18 points (7-16 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds and two steals over 33 minutes during Wednesday's 104-97 loss to Phoenix.

Impact Porter drew the start despite battling an unspecified illness but was fairly productive in the loss. Porter has plodded along with pedestrian scoring numbers over the past three games due to lower-than-expected shot volume, but his 16 attempts Wednesday is a move in the right direction. Porter can soar well above 20 points with enough opportunity, but he sometimes lacks the necessary aggression to make those opportunities happen on his own.

Good to go Porter (illness) is available for Wednesday's game versus the Suns.

Impact Porter was in danger of missing his first game since Feb. 9, but he will ultimately play through an illness. Barring any setbacks, look for him to take on his usual role at forward.

MARCH 28, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Returns to injury report Porter is probable for Wednesday's game against Phoenix due to an illness.

Impact Porter was dealing with an illness prior to suiting up in Monday's victory over Memphis, although he worked with an abridged workload, delivering 11 points (4-7 FG) and four rebounds in 22 minutes of action. His status will need to be monitored, but he appears firmly on track for Wednesday's contest.

MARCH 26, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Cleared for action Porter (illness) will play Monday versus Memphis.

Impact Porter and Nikola Jokic (back/hip) are available Monday, while Aaron Gordon (foot) and Jamal Murray (ankle) are out. The specifics of Porter's ailment are unclear, but no minutes restriction has been mentioned for the 25-year-old.

MARCH 26, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Dealing with illness Porter is questionable for Monday's game against the Grizzlies due to an illness.

Impact Porter and Aaron Gordon (foot) are late additions to the injury report, joining Nikola Jokic (back/hip) and Jamal Murray (ankle) as questionable. Given almost their entire starting lineup is questionable, it's difficult to project what the Nuggets' rotation will look like until we get clarity on who'll be available.

MARCH 25, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Extremely efficient in win Thursday Porter finished Thursday's 113-100 win over the Knicks with 31 points (13-16 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and eight rebounds in 37 minutes.

Impact There's no question that the Nuggets will go as far as Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray can carry them, but the team gets an entirely new dimension on offense when Porter can knock down shots consistently. This 13-for-16 performance was one of his best showings of the entire campaign, and Porter is arguably going through one of his most productive stretches of the season. He's now scored at least 20 points in four of his last five appearances, averaging 23.0 points per game while shooting 50 percent from deep and 60.9 percent from the field in that span.
