Michael Porter Jr: “You learn from your experience. One of the reasons I didn’t want to come back was I didn’t want to come back too early and have what happened before happen again.”
Referring to the way he approached his back injury when he was at Missouri. – 2:19 PM

Michael Porter Jr on the way the Nuggets handled both his and Jamal Murray’s injuries: “The organization is amazing. The way they gave us our space and time and encouraged us and didn’t rush us, it was really dope.”
“They didn’t put any type of pressure on us.” – 2:18 PM

Michael Porter was very complimentary of the organization, saying it was dope that they gave Jamal and MPJ their space to rehab and didn’t pressure them into coming back too soon. – 2:17 PM

MPJ, on his bond with Jamal: Said they were each telling each other not to rush back. Said they tried to keep a big-picture approach.
MPJ mentions his relationships with IT and how important it was to have the Nuggets’ support throughout their decisions. – 2:16 PM

I asked MPJ about the Warriors and what he learned. He immediately went to the mental side of things and how even if they don’t make shots, they stay locked in defensively. Used Klay as an example. Said that was something he’s struggled with and wants to get better at. – 2:15 PM

Michael Porter Jr. speaking with Denver media says he probably could have played over the last month. He says he could have play on one leg and stand in the corner and shoot 3s. “But I probably wouldn’t have been at my best. At that point it’s thinking short term not long term.” – 2:12 PM

Michael Porter Jr said he “didn’t want to do anything that would risk long-term health.” Said he probably “could have played” but he would not have been at his best. Said he thought would he really help the team?

MPJ said that when he returned at Mizzou for the NCAA tournament he was around 50% and in retrospect, he wished he wouldn’t have. Said that helped inform his decision not to return this season. – 2:06 PM

MPJ: I guess you could call it a little setback (in March).
Said he was aiming to come back in March but ramped up too quickly. – 2:03 PM

Michael Porter says that he had a little setback in March, that he was aiming to come back way prior to the playoffs, and decided to take it easy after that. – 2:03 PM
