The Denver Nuggets will be without Michael Porter Jr. when they play the Phoenix Suns Friday evening. Porter Jr. is expected to miss multiple games due to contract tracing within the NBA’s health and safety protocols, per multiple reports.

This news comes as a surprise as Jamal Murray is nursing an injury, and Denver is just 1-3 out of the gate this season.

Aniello Piro of Mile High Sports previews the game in the latest installment of the Denver Nuggets podcast. Piro talks about how losing MPJ will impact that team and also dishes out some betting knowledge for anybody interested in taking advantage of the new practice.
