Aaron Gordon Questionable For Meeting With The Warriors
3 years agoDenver Nuggets forward Aaron Gordon (hamstring) is questionable ahead of Tuesday night's meeting against Golden State. The veteran, who is averaging 14 points and 5.5 rebounds, didn't suit up for his last two games because of left hamstring soreness, so the team has unquestionably been missing his production. Nonetheless, if he can't return, Austin Rivers, who had 12 points and went 4-for-6 from deep on Sunday versus the Clippers, could draw another start. However, Will Barton and Nikola Jokic should benefit the most from a fantasy perspective without Gordon in the equation.

Aaron Gordon Returns To Nuggets Lineup Friday
1 day agoDenver Nuggets forward/center Aaron Gordon (calf) will rejoin the lineup for Friday's showdown against the Los Angeles Lakers. He has been dealing with a calf injury throughout the campaign and missed the first two games of the week. Russell Westbrook will likely return to the bench with Gordon back in the fold. Gordon's production has been inconsistent all year, but his average numbers since the All-Star break look solid, as the veteran has posted 18.0 points and 4.5 rebounds in 28.2 minutes.

Aaron Gordon Uncertain For Friday
2 days agoDenver Nuggets forward Aaron Gordon (ankle) is listed as questionable ahead of Friday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. Gordon has missed the last two games and sat out five of the last seven contests. The absence of Gordon has given Peyton Watson, Russell Westbrook, and Zeke Nnaji more playing time in the rotation. Westbrook has taken advantage of it with a handful of solid fantasy performances over the last few games. He would once again be a popular fantasy option if Gordon is unable to play on Friday. Fantasy managers will need to check back on Friday for another update.

Aaron Gordon Ruled Out Against Timberwolves
3 days agoDenver Nuggets forward/center Aaron Gordon (calf) will skip a second consecutive game on Wednesday against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Gordon was listed as doubtful on the initial injury report, so it was always unlikely that he would be in the lineup. Russell Westbrook looks set for another start on Wednesday, while Peyton Watson and Zeke Nnaji will fill the frontcourt minutes that are left over from Gordon's absence.

Aaron Gordon Unlikely To Play Wednesday
4 days agoDenver Nuggets forward Aaron Gordon (calf, ankle) is listed as doubtful ahead of Wednesday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Gordon is in line to miss his second straight game after suffering both a calf and ankle injury. These issues kept Gordon sidelined on Monday and it'll likely hold him out for at least one more game. The absence of Gordon should mean increased playing time for Peyton Watson and Zeke Nnaji in the rotation. Neither player is offering great fantasy value right now, but Watson should be able to hold some low-end streaming value.
