Top Michael Porter Jr. News

  • Nets' Michael Porter: Double-doubles in win

    Porter posted 27 points (8-17 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 9-9 FT), 11 rebounds, five assists, one block and four turnovers across 32 minutes during Sunday's 127-115 win over the Nuggets.

    Porter notched his first block since early December during Sunday's win, and it was just his sixth blocked shot of the season. The sharpshooter has been in a nice rhythm over the past six games, flirting with top-15 value behind averages of 26.8 points, 8.7 rebounds, 3.8 assists, 4.2 triples and 1.0 steals per contest.

  • Nets' Michael Porter: Good to go

    Porter (illness) is available for Sunday's game against the Nuggets.

    Porter will return from a two-game absence due to illness. The 27-year-old forward was initially listed as probable for Sunday's contest. Porter is averaging career highs in points (25.8), rebounds (7.5) and assists (3.3) this season. His return will likely mean fewer opportunities for Drake Powell and Ziaire Williams.

  • Nets' Michael Porter: Expected to play

    Porter (illness) is probable for Sunday's game against Denver.

    The 27-year-old forward is on track to return from a two-game absence to face his former team. If Porter can suit up, there will be fewer minutes available for guys like Danny Wolf and Jalen Wilson.

  • Nets' Michael Porter: Sitting again Friday

    Porter (illness) will miss Friday's game against the Wizards.

    Porter will end up missing both games of this back-to-back set due to his illness. His next chance to play comes Sunday against Denver. Guys like Danny Wolf and Jalen Wilson could be more involved for the Nets on Friday.

  • Nets' Michael Porter: Won't play against Houston

    Porter won't play in Thursday's game against the Rockets due to an illness, Marc J. Spears of ESPN.com reports.

    Porter faces a short turnaround if he wants to suit up for Friday's tilt against the Wizards. His absence could entrench Cam Thomas as the top scoring option Thursday. The likes of Danny Wolf, Drake Powell and Tyrese Martin also have an opportunity to step into the starting lineup for the Nets.

  • Nets' Michael Porter: Iffy for Thursday

    Porter (illness) is questionable for Thursday's game against Houston, C.J. Holmes of the New York Daily News reports.

    This is a new issue for Porter, and the bad news for Brooklyn is that Thursday's game is the front end of a back-to-back set. If Porter is unable to give it a go, there will be more minutes available for guys like Drake Powell, Ziaire Williams and Jalen Wilson.

  • Nets' Michael Porter: Well-rounded effort in loss

    Porter posted 27 points (10-18 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 2-4 FT), nine rebounds, five assists and three steals across 36 minutes in Monday's 120-107 loss to the Warriors.

    Porter delivered an efficient performance while stuffing the stat sheet Monday, albeit in a losing effort. The 27-year-old forward tied the game-high mark in points, scoring at least 24 for a fifth consecutive contest. Additionally, he led the Nets in assists and has dished out at least five dimes in two of his last four games. While the sharpshooter is more known for his offensive prowess, Porter had an impactful night on the defensive end, chipping in a game- and season-high-tying three steals.

  • Nets' Michael Porter: Drops 27 and 10 in victory

    Porter accumulated 27 points (9-16 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 5-5 FT), 10 rebounds and four assists across 33 minutes during Saturday's 123-107 victory over the Timberwolves.

    MPJ turned in his second double-double in his past three games and third during the month of December. He was very efficient from the field, and converted all five free-throw attempts. Cam Thomas returning to the lineup after a near two-month absence had virtually no impact on Porter's scoring; this was the second time this season where each player topped 25 points, with the first instance having come Oct. 24 versus Cleveland.

  • Nets' Michael Porter: Game-high 28 points Tuesday

    Porter recorded 28 points (9-20 FG, 5-12 3Pt, 5-7 FT), five rebounds, one assist and two steals over 34 minutes during Tuesday's 114-106 victory over the 76ers.

    Porter did most of his damage in the first half, with 25 of his 28 points being scored through the first two quarters of Tuesday's contest. He went just 1-for-6 from the field in the second half, but he was still the game's leading scorer while finishing tied with Noah Clowney with a team-high two steals. Porter has scored at least 28 points in six of his last eight outings, and over that span, he has averaged 28.6 points, 7.3 rebounds, 3.6 assists, 4.9 threes and 1.1 steals in 33.4 minutes per game while shooting 50.6 percent from the field and 46.4 percent from deep.

  • Nets' Michael Porter: Strong double-double in win

    Porter registered 24 points (9-18 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 11 rebounds, five assists and one steal over 36 minutes during the Nets' 96-81 win over the Raptors on Sunday.

    Porter set the tone for the Nets early with 17 points in the first half, 10 of which came in the second quarter. Porter connected on at least four triples for the 14th time this season and logged his fifth double-double of the season (and second in December). In seven games since Dec. 1, Porter has averaged 28.7 points, 7.6 rebounds, 4.0 assists, 4.9 threes and 1.0 steals over 33.4 minutes per game.

  • Nets' Michael Porter: Scores 28 points with five treys

    Porter ended Thursday's 106-95 loss to Miami with 28 points (10-24 FG, 5-14 3Pt, 3-3 FT), six rebounds and three assists in 34 minutes.

    Porter has been struggling from an efficiency standpoint the past two games, going 14-for-35 from the floor and 7-for-21 from three-point range. He's shooting 49.3 percent from the floor and 39.6 percent from distance on the season, though, so it should only be a matter of time until Porter finds his rhythm again.

  • Nets' Michael Porter: Scores 12 points with 11 shots

    Porter accumulated 12 points (4-11 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 2-3 FT), six rebounds and five assists over 26 minutes during Sunday's 127-82 victory over the Bucks.

    Porter has been the Nets' best player by a wide margin this season, but he didn't have his best showing Sunday -- at least from a statistical perspective. Porter was coming off four straight games in which he cleared the 30-point mark, so some regression was inevitable. Based on how important he's been for Brooklyn offensively this season, expect Porter to have a prominent role once again when the Nets face the Heat on Thursday.

  • Nets' Michael Porter: Pours in game-high 35 Saturday

    Porter chipped in 35 points (14-23 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 2-2 FT), nine rebounds, three assists, one block and two steals across 33 minutes during Saturday's 119-101 victory over New Orleans.

    The 27-year-old forward led all scorers in the contest and appeared to be 100 percent after sitting out the Nets' last game Thursday on the second night of a back-to-back for maintenance purposes. Porter has topped 30 points in each of the first three games he's played in December, averaging 34.3 points, 8.7 boards, 5.7 threes, 4.0 assists and 2.0 steals per game to begin the month.

  • Nets' Michael Porter: Not listed on injury report

    Porter (back) is not listed on the injury report ahead of Saturday's matchup with the Pelicans, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.

    Porter sat out Thursday's loss to the Jazz, with that game coming as the second leg of a back-to-back set, but he'll be back in action with his usual minutes Saturday night. Porter's return will likely result in Tyrese Martin or Terance Mann heading back to the second unit.

  • Nets' Michael Porter: Ruled out for Thursday

    Porter (back) won't play Thursday against the Jazz, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports.

    The Nets are calling this injury management, so this is essentially a maintenance day on the second leg of this back-to-back set. During Wednesday's win over the Bulls, Porter had 33 points (10-20 FG, 5-12 3Pt, 8-10 FT), 10 rebounds, five assists, one block and two steals in 34 minutes. Noah Clowney could see a usage rate bump Thursday, and players like Jalen Wilson and Ziaire Williams could be more involved.

  • Nets' Michael Porter: Paces Nets with 33 points

    Porter registered 33 points (10-20 FG, 5-12 3Pt, 8-10 FT), 10 rebounds, five assists, one block and two steals in 34 minutes during Wednesday's 113-103 win over the Bulls.

    Porter continues to lead by example in Brooklyn with yet another offensive explosion -- this was his seventh game of the campaign with at least 30 points. Across 18 appearances this season, Porter holds averages of 25.4 points, 7.5 rebounds, 3.2 assists, 0.9 steals and 3.4 three-pointers.
