Nuggets Shooting Solution: Speedy Recovery for Michael Porter Jr.

Michael Porter Jr. is by far the best hope for an outside shooting presence on the current Nuggets roster. MPJ’s lower back problems likely were dogging him all season. He was shooting 35.9 FG percent and 20.8 percent 3-pt FG compared to 54.2 percent FG and 44.5 percent 3-pt FG last season. If he can come back within the next few weeks, the problem might be solved quickly enough to avoid losing too much ground in the standings.
