When the NBA went dark almost four months ago due to the COVID-19 pandemic, there was uncertainly on whether professional basketball would be back in 2020. Alas, the bubble idea has worked and the Denver Nuggets are thriving behind superstar big man Nikola Jokic and rookie, Michael Porter Jr.
It’s crazy to think Porter is still a rookie because when you watch him on the court, he is arguably the best player out there. After struggling in the Nuggets first game back against Miami last week, Porter has bounced back with two phenomenal games and has put the entire NBA on notice.
