Michael Porter Jr. - Grabs eight rebounds in victory Porter had 18 points (7-14 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds and two assists over 37 minutes during Wednesday's 116-107 win over the Timberwolves.
Impact Porter hasn't missed a game this month despite playing with a knee injury. Although his rebounding totals remain steady, Porter's scoring numbers tend to fluctuate depending on how the flow of the game develops. The Nuggets will need an extra dose of aggressiveness from him as they try to seal up the top seed in the Western Conference playoffs.

Jamal Murray - Posts 20 points in key victory Murray chipped in 20 points (8-13 FG, 4-6 3Pt), four rebounds and six assists in 27 minutes during Wednesday's 116-107 victory over Minnesota.
Impact Although the Nuggets rode on Nikola Jokic's coat tails in the potential Conference Final preview, Murray played through a pesky knee injury and provided a solid result. Murray's knee kept him out of action for seven games, but he's averaged a balanced 21.3 points, 5.3 assists, 3.0 rebounds, 1.7 blocked shots and 1.3 steals since his return to the floor.
APRIL 11 • ROTOWIRE
Nikola Jokic - Posts 20th 40-point game of career Jokic closed with 41 points (16-20 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 7-12 FT), 11 rebounds, seven assists and three steals in 38 minutes during Wednesday's 116-107 win over the Timberwolves.
Impact Jokic turned in a majestic performance with the top seed in the West on the line. Jokic recorded this number despite being guarded by Rudy Gobert, who is a three-time Defensive Player of the Year winner. Despite the critical win, the Nuggets are only one game ahead of Minnesota and Oklahoma City, so Jokic should still be on the floor for the final two games and probably won't get any pre-playoff rest.
