Michael Porter Jr. on his brother Jontay: “I know just as much as you guys know at this point. I’ve known my brother my whole life. I know what type of dude he is and I know he’s excited to play basketball and I highly doubt he would do anything to put that in jeopardy.” – 1:21 AM

Michael Porter Jr. on the presence of sports betting around the NBA: “People in the crowd are saying what they need you to score, or what they don’t want you to score. Every night you’re disappointing someone…it’s part of the game now.
“We as players we have to accept that.” – 1:18 AM

I asked Michael Porter Jr. about his brother Jontay being investigated by the NBA for irregular activity regarding prop bets.
MPJ said Jontay’s super excited to have the opportunity he’s got with Toronto:
“I highly doubt he would do anything to put that in jeopardy,” MPJ said. – 1:12 AM

Three games in a row that Michael Porter hasn’t made much of an impact. He’s dealing with illness, but I also wonder if he’s a bit tired. – 12:17 AM

At the half: Suns 59, Nuggets 52
Not an aggressive half for Jokic as he finished with 6 points on 3/5 shooting. Does have 7 asts. Expect him to pick it up in the 2nd half.
MPJ has 14 pts & AG/KCP have 10 apiece.
If you’re Malone, what’s your message to the team? – 11:22 PM

Here’s what I’m watching for tonight vs. Suns:
– This feels like a game the Nuggets will get up for
Nikola Jokic and Michael Porter Jr. are expected to play tonight. Jamal Murray and Aaron Gordon are listed as questionable, but I think they play. It’s one of Denver’s final… – 7:08 PM

Ryan Blackburn: Aaron Gordon is available to play tonight. I asked Michael Malone pregame on the differences between him and Michael Porter starting at power forward for Denver. His message was this: “We’re definitely at our best when Aaron Gordon is out there. What he brings on both ends of the floor, the intangibles, the toughness, the defense, the rebounding, and obviously how well he complements not just Nikola but everybody else on that floor.” -via Twitter @NBABlackburn / March 27, 2024
