The Denver Nuggets have announced that Michael Porter Jr. will “likely” miss Las Vegas Summer League after tweaking his left knee in a scrimmage on Wednesday night.
Porter Jr. was expected to make his long-awaited debut on Friday night as the Summer League Nuggets take on the Phoenix Suns at the Thomas and Mack Center in Las Vegas, Nevada. Instead, the Nuggets will head to Sin City with the expectation that he will miss the entire event.
The injury comes after two weeks of hype and excitement surrounding his mini-camp workouts with the team.
