Michael Porter Jr. flirted with a double-double for the Nuggets Thursday night, grabbing six rebounds and chipping in 16 points (6-11 FG, 3-7 3PT, 1-2 FT) while also recording one steal and dishing out three assists in a 126-124 loss to the Trailblazers.

Fantasy Impact:

Porter Jr. continues a solid stretch on both ends of the floor, finishing with five or more rebounds and 11 or more points in each of his last five games. The forward remains a steady option as part of a Denver starting five carried by all-world center Nikola Jokic, averaging 18.4 points and 7.1 rebounds per game to go along with a 19.1% usage rate so far this season.
