On May 21, Denver media Nugglove mentioned the situation of Michael Porter Jr., who believed that Porter Jr. may have finished the last game of his Nuggets' career. His latest odds are also released, with the Warriors ranking first and the Lakers ranked third.
Nugglove pointed out that Porter's contract has become unbearable for the Nuggets.
Potter Jr.'s salary is about $36 million this season, and will rise to $38.3 million next season, and more than $40 million in the next year. This is a star-level salary, but under the current labor agreement, the team cannot pay star salary for non-stars. Unfortunately, Porter Jr. is more like a role player now.
His progress has never been as expected, and he performed stably but far from outstanding. Although he is still a top shooter with a height advantage, his ball control and organizational skills have almost no improvement. Defensive and rebounding abilities also stagnated, making him a fairly single-dimensional player.
Although the height of 2.08 meters and top three-point shooting are good features, this is not enough to match Porter's contract. He is growing too slowly, and he is approaching his career maturity as he is about to enter the 27-year-old season. The Nuggets need to rebalance the lineup and salary structure, and Porter Jr is obviously the primary breakthrough.
Denver must somehow get rid of this contract. Unfortunately, his trade in the league is not worth a lot, but the Nuggets need to free up cap space to convert it into multiple role players to enhance the depth of the lineup.
With Murray and Gordon's contract extension coming soon, the team needs to significantly adjust their lineup. Jokic (already owned a super top salary contract, Braun is about to usher in a large contract renewal.
salary space will not be balanced, and the Nuggets must take the initiative to solve the problem in advance before the problem worsens, so as to avoid being forced to passively trade the players they wanted to stay. Many media said that Porter Jr. is the most likely player in the Nuggets team this summer.
The latest odds about Porter Jr. have also been released: the Warriors +300 ranked first, the Bulls +400 ranked second, and the Lakers +600 ranked third. Magic ranked fourth, the Celtics ranked fifth, the Clippers and the Trail Blazers tied for sixth, the Suns ranked eighth, and the Raptors ranked ninth.
Do you think Porter Jr. will leave the Nuggets? Which team will he wear? Welcome to leave a message and express his opinion.
