The Brooklyn Nets intend to keep forward Michael Porter Jr. after getting him in a trade from the Denver Nuggets, per ESPN's Ramona Shelburne.

Michael Porter Jr., a Columbia native and former Mizzou basketball player, spent six years with the Denver Nuggets before the trade deal.

The Nets finally cashed in their most valuable trade chip, dealing Cam Johnson to Denver for Michael Porter Jr. and a first-round pick. Brooklyn will get the 6-foot-10, 218-pound forward and Denver’s 2032 first-rounder in a deal first reported by ESPN and confirmed by The Post.
