Nets' Michael Porter: Wants to improve off ball
Porter said his goal this season is to become the best off-ball player in the NBA, Sharif Phillips-Keaton of USA Today reports.
The forward believes his cutting and catch-and-shoot ability give him the tools to reach that level, though he emphasized that conditioning will be an important factor. Porter should have plenty of opportunities to showcase those skills as he looks to have another significant role with Brooklyn.

Nets' Michael Porter: Could see fewer touches
Porter (hamstring) could see his offensive role shift after the Nets acquired Julius Randle, who figures to become one of the focal points of Brooklyn's half-court offense, Sameer Kumar of SI.com reports.
While Porter should continue to benefit from Randle's ability to draw defensive attention, Randle's high-usage style may reduce Porter's shot volume after he emerged as the team's top-scoring option last season. Porter should still have plenty of fantasy appeal due to his elite shooting and rebounding, but his scoring upside may take a slight hit if Randle dominates possessions as expected.

Nets' Michael Porter: Out for season
Porter (hamstring) has been ruled out for the remainder of the 2025-26 season, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports.
The Nets are sitting on a record of 18-58, and with just six games remaining on the schedule, it's not surprising to see Porter get shut down. The 27-year-old forward hit career highs across the board in his first season with the Nets, contributing top-30 value behind averages of 24.2 points, 7.1 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 3.4 triples and 1.1 steals per game on 46/36/86 shooting splits in 52 regular-season appearances.

Nets' Michael Porter: Will be re-evaluated in 2-3 weeks
An MRI confirmed a left hamstring strain for Porter, and he will be re-evaluated in 2-to-3 weeks.
In three weeks from today's date, the Nets will have only three games remaining on their schedule, so there's a decent chance we won't see Porter in uniform again this season. Danny Wolf, Josh Minott and Ziaire Williams (foot) will likely help fill the void while Porter is out.
