Aaron Gordon Posts An Excellent Line In Game 2 Loss
Aaron Gordon was one of the few bright spots on Tuesday night for his club as he scored 20 points on 8-for-12 shooting in the loss to the Raptors. Gordon chipped in five boards with two assists and connected on three triples with a block on this night. Gordon stepped up for his squad, as the rest of the Magic's offensive threats were quiet on this night (Nikola Vucevic just six points and Evan Fournier scored 10 points). The Raptors will probably make some adjustments for Game 3 back in Orlando, but as of now, Gordon has been their best player through the first two games.

Aaron Gordon Officially Listed as Questionable for Game 7
Aaron Gordon (hamstring) has been officially listed as questionable for Sunday's Game 7 against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Nuggets interim head coach David Adelman labeled Gordon a game-time decision for the matchup after he was diagnosed with a left hamstring strain ahead of Sunday's winner-takes-all clash. If the Nuggets cannot count on him on Sunday, Peyton Watson and Julian Strawther may have larger roles in the rotation. The two youngsters have made little impact in the postseason, but Strawther will carry some momentum into the game, having notched 15 points in 20 minutes during Thursday's Game 6 win.

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.
