3 years agoDenver Nuggets small forward Michael Porter Jr. (back) has been ruled out for the rest of Saturday's contest against the Rockets after exiting with a sore lower back. Porter logged just seven minutes prior to his exit, shooting 1-for-4 from the field, including missing a wide-open, uncontested layup. He finished with two points and four rebounds. Entering the day, Porter was shooting just 36.4 percent on the year, including 21.7 percent from behind the arc. Having missed his rookie season in 2018-19 due to a back injury, fantasy managers will want to stay particularly abreast of Porter's latest flare up. His next chance to play comes Monday vs. Miami.--Jesse Borek
