When Michael Porter Jr. cooks, everybody eats. The Nuggets are 12-1 when MPJ drops 21 points or more. They’re 14-4 when he nails at least four treys.

“We always talk about (how) we can make it so much easier on him,” Jamal Murray said of his wing man late Sunday night after Denver rallied past the Los Angeles Clippers in overtime.

“He doesn’t have to take tough shots — we can get (him) 30 just off catch-and-shoots. So it’s nice to see him lace it up and have that confidence and have a big game like this.
