Aaron Gordon Not Expected To Be Out Long-Term
2 weeks agoDenver Nuggets forward Aaron Gordon (calf) is not dealing with a long-term injury. Gordon played only four minutes in Monday's matchup against Toronto, exiting the action with a calf strain. He already carried a questionable tag ahead of the game due to a calf problem, and he has also been battling a knee injury. According to Nuggets head coach Michael Malone, Gordon is dealing with "bumps and bruises," and he doesn't think the 29-year-old forward will be a long-term absentee. With Gordon out, Peyton Watson surpassed the 30-minute mark for the first time this season on Monday. He could play a bigger role again in Wednesday's matchup against Oklahoma City, assuming Gordon is not in the lineup.
