Aaron Gordon Considered Probable For Monday
Aaron Gordon (calf) is likely to make a third consecutive appearance on Monday against the Indiana Pacers, as the team lists him as probable for the game. Gordon continues to deal with a calf injury that has affected him throughout the season. Nevertheless, he has missed only two of the last 17 games and appeared completely fine on Saturday against the Los Angeles Lakers. Gordon scored a team-high 24 points in 35 minutes during a 123-100 loss, marking the most minutes he has played since November.

Aaron Gordon Listed As Probable For Game 2
Aaron Gordon (calf) has been listed as probable for Monday's Game 2 against the Los Angeles Clippers. Gordon is back on the injury report with a right calf strain, but he is likely to play. The veteran was one of the stars of the show in the series opener on Saturday, posting 25 points, eight rebounds, and two steals in 46 minutes. The Clippers must improve their defensive effort against him on Monday night, though they aren't the only team that has struggled to contain him, as Gordon is averaging over 20 points per game this month.

Aaron Gordon Tagged As Questionable For Tuesday
Aaron Gordon (illness, calf) has picked up a questionable tag ahead of Tuesday's action against the Minnesota Timberwolves. The game will kick off a back-to-back set for Denver, and Gordon looks certain to sit out at least one of the contests as he keeps managing a calf injury. Furthermore, he is dealing with an illness, which could also impact his availability. Peyton Watson's workload will likely increase if Gordon does not play. The young forward has been a monster on the defensive end lately, averaging 3.0 blocks per game over the past four contests.

Aaron Gordon Available Wednesday
Aaron Gordon (calf, ankle) will suit up for Wednesday's contest against the Milwaukee Bucks. He is ready to return from a one-game absence after initially carrying a questionable tag on the injury report. Peyton Watson, who tallied 24 points in 39 minutes on Monday against the Chicago Bulls, will have to settle for a smaller role in the rotation due to Gordon's return. Although Gordon has been bothered by calf and ankle injuries, his recent performances have been outstanding, as the 29-year-old has averaged 23.4 points, 6.2 rebounds, and 3.8 assists over his last five appearances.

Aaron Gordon Probable For Friday
Aaron Gordon (calf, ankle) is probable for Friday's matchup with the Portland Trail Blazers. Gordon has played in the Nugget's last two games despite being listed still on the injury report for right calf injury management and a sprained left ankle. If the 29-year-old can suit up, he will likely start at the center as Nikola Jokic (ankle), who is still sidelined with an ankle issue. He could also factor in fantasy this evening with the extra minutes available after finishing with 26 points, 11 rebounds, and one steal across 30 minutes in a 120-108 loss to the Lakers during his last outing on Wednesday.
