Michael Porter, Jr. again limited, plays only 10 minutes in win

After playing eight minutes in his first game back in action on Friday, Michael Porter, Jr. (ankle) played only ten minutes in Denver's 128-116 win over Minnesota on Sunday, scoring two points (1-4 FG, 0-1 3pt) with three rebounds and no other statistics.
Fantasy Impact:
It's officially time to be worried about MPJ's rest-of-season outlook this year. The Nuggets offer a lot of depth and versatility in their lineup, and Porter, Jr. is competing with numerous veterans for playing time. Coach Michael Malone also suggested that the rookie isn't fully healthy either: "I don't think he's 100% but we have a locker room full of guys that are not 100%". While he remains a hold in keeper/dynasty formats, Porter, Jr. is a likely drop candidate in season-long leagues until he gets more playing time.
