The Nuggets received a positive update regarding injuries, according to Vinny Benedetto of the Denver Gazette.

Starting power forward Aaron Gordon, who sat out Sunday’s win over Golden State due to a calf issue, was back at practice on Tuesday and could be ready to return for Wednesday’s matchup in Utah.

“’AG’ looked good today. His comfort level seemed like it was in a good place with the calf. I’m hoping he’ll play (Wednesday),” Nuggets coach David Adelman said.

Cameron Johnson, who exited Sunday’s game because of back spasms, also took part in practice. He downplayed the concern, explaining the issue came on suddenly.

“They just kind of popped up on me, maybe after a little bit of contact or something,” Johnson said. “I’m fine now, though. It goes away.”
