Michael Porter still performed well. He made 8 of 16 shots, 4 of 8 three-pointers, 25 points, 6 rebounds, 2 assists, 3 steals, and only 1 turnover in 33 minutes and 42 seconds.

This is the first time in Porter's career that he has scored at least 20 points in 7 consecutive games. In the past seven games, Porter Jr. averaged 27 points, 7.4 rebounds and 3.4 assists per game. Porter Jr. also became the fastest (tied) player in Nets history to score 300 points and 100 rebounds after joining.

In the first 13 games, Porter averaged 24.2 points, 7.7 rebounds, and 3.2 assists per game, shooting 47.6% from the field, 36.3% from three-point range, and 60.7% from the field. With his height advantage, Porter can ignore his opponents and pull up three-pointers. This is also his strongest weapon on the offensive end. In addition, he is also good at cutting and grabbing offensive rebounds. Porter Jr.'s career true shooting percentage since joining the NBA is 61.7%.

The Nuggets traded Porter Jr. to the Nets in the offseason in exchange for Cameron Johnson. Porter Jr.'s annual salary is 38.33 million this season and 40.8 million next year.
