The Denver Nuggets are on the verge of getting a significant reinforcement for their frontcourt, as Aaron Gordon is expected to return to action soon.
The veteran forward participated in practice on Saturday, showing progress in his recovery, but his availability for Sunday’s game against the LA Clippers remains uncertain. The team is closely monitoring his condition to determine if he’s ready to rejoin the lineup.
Gordon has been sidelined since November 4, when he sustained a calf strain that has kept him out of action for several weeks. Before the injury, he played some of the best basketball of his career, averaging 15.4 points per game.
His shooting efficiency was exceptional, as he scored 52.9% of his field goals, including a scorching 54.5% from three-point range. Gordon’s ability to stretch the floor with his shooting, strong defense, and versatility made him a crucial part of the Nuggets’ success early in the season.
The potential return of Gordon would be a major boost for Denver, as they look to strengthen their frontcourt depth and continue their pursuit of a high playoff seed in the Western Conference.
While his exact status for Sunday’s game is still up in the air, the Nuggets are hopeful that Gordon will be able to rejoin the team soon and contribute to their success moving forward.
