Porter Jr Blames Nuggets for Letting KCP Go | Denver Nuggets News
Description
Michael Porter Jr. drops a fiery take on his podcast, blaming the Denver Nuggets’ post-championship slide on letting Kentavious Caldwell-Pope walk in 2024 — calling him irreplaceable for his defense and shooting. He argues Christian Braun’s rise didn’t fill that void, even as Braun blossoms. While Denver kept KCP for one more season before sending him to Orlando, Porter Jr.’s critique underscores how “glue guy” roles matter — and how the team’s money-saving moves, like trading Peyton Watson and himself, may be backfiring. The Nuggets’ roster looks unrecognizable from their title run, and if they keep prioritizing payroll over players, the consequences could keep piling up.
