Aaron Gordon Scores Season-High 27 Points
2 years agoDenver Nuggets forward Aaron Gordon had it going on against the Oklahoma City Thunder on Thursday night. The ninth-year power forward put up 27 points while shooting a red-hot 10-for-13 from the floor and 3-for-4 from deep. He also sprinkled in five rebounds, three assists, and one steal for good measure. In deeper leagues, Gordon is a must-add fantasy player. He came with an ADP in the 12th round and is an important piece to this Nuggets team.

Aaron Gordon Listed As Questionable For Monday
1 day agoDenver Nuggets forward/center Aaron Gordon (calf, ankle) may remain out for a second consecutive game on Monday against the Golden State Warriors after the team listed him as questionable for the contest. Gordon has been bothered by a calf injury all year and is now also dealing with a left ankle sprain. With him out on Saturday against the Washington Wizards, Russell Westbrook returned to the starting lineup. Peyton Watson, Zeke Nnaji, and Christian Braun (foot) also gain fantasy value with Gordon out of the lineup. The latter remains on the injury report but is listed as probable, which suggests that Braun will likely be available Monday night.

Aaron Gordon Unavailable On Saturday
2 days agoDenver Nuggets forward Aaron Gordon (calf, ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Saturday's game against the Washington Wizards. Gordon will take a seat here after suiting up on Friday. It sounds like the Nuggets are going to play it safe here and rest Gordon in the second leg of the back-to-back set. Gordon has already missed five games this month, but is a fairly decent fantasy option when healthy. His absence means more playing time for Peyton Watson, Russell Westbrook, and Zeke Nnaji on Saturday. Between the three, Westbrook is the best streaming option ahead of Saturday's slate.

Aaron Gordon Returns To Nuggets Lineup Friday
3 days agoDenver Nuggets forward/center Aaron Gordon (calf) will rejoin the lineup for Friday's showdown against the Los Angeles Lakers.

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
4 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.
