The 2025 NBA Playoffs have not been kind of the Nuggets starter. Porter Jr. is averaging a subpar 9.3 points, 5.8 rebounds, and 0.7 assists per game for the Nuggets, while shooting 38.8 percent from the field and 36.1 percent from 3-point land.
The top-seeded Oklahoma City Thunder are back on their home floor for Game 5 and looking to take the series lead for the first time in their second-round matchup with the Denver Nuggets. The series is tied, 2-2, after OKC pulled out a Game 4 road win on Sunday.
A change of scenery has certainly served the Cleveland Cavaliers well. It's a common theme in Round 2 of the NBA playoffs, where the road squads boast a 7-3 mark so far.
