Won't play Friday Porter has been ruled out for Friday's game in Utah due to personal reasons, C.J. Holmes of the New York Daily News reports.

Impact Friday's game is the second of a back-to-back set, so Porter likely would have been rested anyway, but instead, he'll skip the game for personal reasons. With both Porter and Noah Clowney (back) unavailable for Friday's game, Danny Wolf and Egor Demin could see a sizeable uptick in usage and Drake Powell could start. Porter's next chance to play will come Sunday in Detroit.

Rolls to 38-point night Porter recorded 38 points (13-28 FG, 7-15 3Pt, 5-5 FT), 10 rebounds, three assists, two steals and two blocks across 37 minutes during Thursday's 107-103 loss to the Nuggets.

Impact Porter was highly effective from beyond the arc Thursday, which allowed the Nets to stay competitive into the fourth quarter even after falling behind early by 19 points. He tacked on 21 of his 38 points from deep, and put the finishing touches on his big night by recording his first double-double since Jan. 4. Porter has now put up 30 or more points in three of his last four matchups.

Bounces back with massive total Porter ended Tuesday's 106-102 loss to the Suns with 36 points (15-24 FG, 6-10 3Pt, 0-1 FT), five rebounds, three assists and three steals over 37 minutes.

Impact Porter's last two games are a tale of opposites. After posting his worst scoring total of the season against the Clippers, he turned around and recorded a season-high 36 points in the narrow loss to the Suns. Porter's seasonal average of 25.2 points has been exceeded 20 times this season. Although his success hasn't resulted in more wins for the Nets, he's been one of the most consistent fantasy performers in the Eastern Conference.

Significant regression in loss Porter finished Sunday's 126-89 loss to the Clippers with nine points (3-11 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 3-3 FT), two rebounds and four assists across 22 minutes.

Impact Porter logged his lowest scoring total of the season during the blowout loss. He failed to get anything going and was eventually pulled as the Clippers ran away with the game. Porter is one of the Nets' most dependable options, and the Nets' fortunes often rely on the seventh-year pro's success or failure. Porter is currently in high demand in the trade market, but the Nets will want a hefty player-pick package in exchange for his services.
