According to Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN, Denver Nuggets star forward Michael Porter Jr. will miss tonight’s game due to lumbar spine management.
Denver Nuggets forward Michael Porter Jr. (lumbar management), will miss his first game of the season tonight vs. the Lakers (ESPN, 10 ET), but there’s optimism he could be back vs. Utah on Friday, sources tell ESPN.

The Nuggets listed Porter as QUESTIONABLE just yesterday on the injury report, so the news that he will miss tonight’s game was somewhat expected.
