5 years agoDenver Nuggets small/power forward Michael Porter Jr. has been ruled out for Sunday’s game against the Detroit Pistons due to an ankle sprain that he sustained Friday. Porter appeared unconcerned by the ailment, which likely indicates that his absence won’t be a lengthy one. The month of January served as Porter’s breakout stretch, as he has reeled off five double-doubles in his last eight games. His absence should pave the way for Jerami Grant and Torrey Craig to see larger roles Sunday. Porter’s next chance at getting back into action comes Tuesday versus Portland.--Jesse Borek
