Michael Porter Jr. von Nuggets has a complete disaster class against Bucks

This was a special season for Michael Porter Jr. with the Nuggets. On the one hand, he was incredibly good in different roles this season and overall very healthy. On the other hand, he was in trading rumors for Denver before the end of the deadline and had a handful of very bad games, especially his terrible performance on Thursday evening against the Bucks.

When Denver came against the Milwaukee Bucks and won 10 of her last 11 games, but had come out of the all-star break (and had returned from his calf injury), Porter Jr. could not find his groove. Before his injury, he had combined three consecutive games of more than 30 points, but he was on the fight bus for Mike at the end of February.

In his last four games, he now only shoots 21/63 (33.3%) from the field and a miserable 4/22 (18.2%) from beyond the arch. He recovered well, which helps a little, but was also not great for the nuggets. Unfortunately, all the negatives of his latest piece were shown in Milwaukee and Porter Jr. looked like the weakest link.

On Thursday evening there was a lid on the edge for MPJ ​​on Thursday evening

As a career 41.0% volume three-point shooter, it is not very often that MPJs is open or even slightly competitive that threes will not be received. Unfortunately, this was the case against the Bucks, since he only connected 5/22 (22.7%) of his recordings in the game in the game.

It was even more surprising that he was even worse from beyond the arch and had a single shot in his first 10 depth attempts. Porter Jr. added a garbage period three pointer when the game was not off the hand, but still ended a abysmal 2/11 (18.2%) with a loss of 121-112 in Milwaukee.

The shot not only did not fall into Mike, but he had some defense gaps and ended the game with -20, the worst brand for both teams. This game is definitely in the race for his poorest game of the season. The question is now easy if it can bounce back. The schedule is still easier for two more games on this road trip on the east coast.

Ultimately, the Nuggets have 23 other games to expect the ship and click their playoff rotation on all cylinders. MPJ will be a massive part of it and has to find his groove again sooner than later.
