It took a while for some Denver Nuggets fans, but Michael Porter Jr. finally made his presence felt to the rest of the league, as he made an important clutch shot that eventually helped his team win over the Golden State Warriors.

Nuggets teammate Malik Beasley missed an important three-point shot late in the game. However, Porter managed to get the offensive board and position himself for a tough shot that he managed to convert amid contact from the Warriors defense.

He was pumped, and his teammates were just as pumped for him. After all, it was a great show of athleticism for a player who saw his career get sidelined by an injury that kept him out throughout his rookie season.

Porter Jr. had a solid outing for the Nuggets, finishing with 18 points, 10 rebounds, five assists, and two steals.
