Why Nuggets traded Michael Porter Jr. for Cameron Johnson

The Denver Nuggets finally get their NBA season underway on Thursday night.

They're one of only two teams not to have already played, along with the Indiana Pacers . They won't be facing one another, though. The Nuggets take on the Golden State Warriors in the second of two games televised by ESPN on Thursday.

Denver will have a new look to its well-established starting lineup.

Out is Michael Porter Jr., and in is Cameron Johnson. The duo was traded for each other in the offseason.

It was a big decision by the Nuggets, and one they'll be hoping proves itself correct.
