Porter isn’t wearing 18, that’s just the number the Nuggets gave all their draft picks on their first jersey. It’s been reported that he wants to wear number 1 with the Nuggets. JohnWesson (talk) 06:04, 23 June 2018 (UTC)Reply

Birthplace

This page lists Indianapolis, Indiana as Michael Porter Jr.’s birthplace, however other sources such as ESPN claim he was born in Columbus, Missouri.

Porter Jr. is also not included in the page List of people from Indianapolis, leading me further to believe that this is untrue.

Please help solve this discrepancy. Jon.yb093 (talk) 05:57, 28 November 2025 (UTC)Reply

Further research

This X post by Michael Porter Sr. suggests that Porter Jr. was indeed born in Indiana, however, in the Fishers area. Due to this, I say that it would be most appropriate for Porter’s birthplace to be changed to Fishers, Indiana. Jon.yb093 (talk) 06:06, 28 November 2025 (UTC)Reply
