The Basketball Gods have an interesting way of testing each player. Sometimes they break iconic pairs, and sometimes they’ll hit them with injuries. Making the game harder to watch as fans see their teams on the brink of defeat. However, for the Denver Nuggets, losing doesn’t seem like an option anymore. Game 7 is near, and David Adelman brings hopeful yet concerning news on Aaron Gordon.
Shams Charania informed the NBA world that AG’s left hamstring injury is of second grade. This means that the 29-year-old forward would require several weeks to recover. This again means that he would be out for the last game vs. the Oklahoma City Thunder. Reports suggested that Gordon was trying everything to make it back to the floor, but his return seems improbable.
David Adelman on Aaron Gordon’s hamstring:
“He’s going through the process right now. Grade number, I don’t really know…he’s trying to play.”
“We’ll see when we get to game time.”

Now, speaking to the media ahead of the game at Paycom Center, the Nuggets head coach Adelman informed the reporters, “He (Aaron Gordon)’s going through the process right now. Grade number, I don’t really know…he’s trying to play. We’ll see when we get to game time.” This has thrown Charania’s reporting into question as many fans have asked if the insider exaggerated his news.
Meanwhile, ESPN’s Tim MacMahon also confirmed what David Adelman further mentioned about AG’s hamstring injury. He said. “If Aaron can go, he’ll go. That’s who he is. There’s a real toughness there. Sometimes being really, really tough and being hurt can get in the way.” Reports suggest that the team would make a collective decision after Gordon’s pregame warmup.
