It wasn’t Nikola Jokic or Jamal Murray who emerged as the most clutch player for the Denver Nuggets. Instead, Aaron Gordon, the 29-year-old small forward, turned out to be the player who flipped the script when the team needed him the most. Three clutch wins in the playoffs and an ambition to grab that Larry O’Brien, AG has been a force to reckon with. However, recent injury reports could be major heartbreak for the Nuggets nation.
Not too long ago, ESPN’s Shams Charania reported that the Nuggets have diagnosed Gordon with a left hamstring strain. And his status for Sunday’s Game 7 clash vs. the Oklahoma City Thunder remains questionable. Sadly, the reality has taken a harsh turn, and Charania has now informed that AG would need several weeks to recover from his Grade 2 injury.
