Milwaukee Bucks news: The Denver Nuggets are still reeling from their 135-106 loss against the Sacramento Kings on Friday night. That loss marked their first in four games in February, and they will be looking to get back to winning ways on Monday when they battle the Bucks.
The Nuggets are relatively healthy heading into the marquee matchup, but Michael Porter Jr. has been listed on the injury report with a right knee issue. This is why the fans want to know: Is Michael Porter Jr. playing tonight vs. the Bucks?
Nuggets Add Michael Porter Jr. to Injury Report Vs. Milwaukee Bucks
As of writing, Porter is considered probable to play against the Bucks. This only means that it’s likely that he will be able to suit up to face Giannis Antetokounmpo (also probable to play) and Co. at the Fiserv Forum.
Then again, you have to take this with a pinch of salt. Porter sat out Friday’s loss to the Kings with the same knee injury, which is despite the fact that he was also listed as probable heading into the game. The Nuggets ultimately decided to have the 25-year-old sit out, given that it was the second night of a back-to-back set.
Right now, though, all signs are pointing to Porter being able to suit up on Monday. So, with regard to the question of is Michael Porter Jr. playing tonight vs. the Bucks, the answer is that he likely will.
UPDATE: The Nuggets have confirmed that Porter will be available against Milwaukee.
