Aaron Gordon Fantasy Stats

Denver Nuggets forward/center Aaron Gordon (calf) will miss a second consecutive game on Thursday against the Minnesota Timberwolves, ESPN's Anthony Slater reports. He was listed as questionable on the initial injury report due to left calf tightness. With Gordon remaining on the shelf, Spencer Jones is likely to get the starting nod again. The 24-year-old sophomore had one of the best performances of his young career in Game 5, totaling 20 points, three rebounds, one assist, three blocks, and three steals. He has a lot to live up to on Thursday night, but Jones' task will be made easier by the fact that he will face a short-handed Timberwolves team.

Denver Nuggets forward/center Aaron Gordon (calf) is questionable for Thursday's Western Conference first-round Game 6 against Minnesota after missing multiple games and playing limited minutes in his last appearance. Even if he returns, his workload could be managed in a win-or-go-home setting. Spencer Jones stepped into a larger role in Game 5, producing 20 points with four three-pointers, three rebounds, and three steals in 37 minutes and would remain a strong DFS value if Gordon sits again. Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray should continue handling the bulk of the offense.

He is not ready to play due to a left calf issue and is sitting out the action after being labeled a game-time decision. Gordon will miss his second game of the series and won't get a chance to return to the lineup this season if Denver doesn't win on Monday.

The team will also look to get more production from Cameron Johnson, Tim Hardaway Jr., and Bruce Brown.

The 30-year-old is dealing with a calf injury and didn't play in Game 3. He returned to the lineup for Game 4, but logged only 23 minutes and sat out most of the fourth quarter. The injury appears to be affecting Gordon's effectiveness, as he has managed only 11.3 points per game in the series, making 40 percent of his field-goal attempts. In Game 4, Spencer Jones started in Gordon's place and is likely to get the nod again if Gordon can't play on Monday. Nevertheless, Jones won't have much DFS appeal due to his limited production.

Denver used Spencer Jones as Gordon's replacement in the starting lineup, but his production was limited to six points, one rebound, and one block in 28 minutes.

Gordon was listed as probable on the initial injury report before he was suddenly downgraded to questionable on Thursday afternoon. Now, he has been officially ruled out due to tightness in his left calf.

He has averaged 12.5 points, 7.5 rebounds, and 3.5 assists in 33.0 minutes this series, though he managed just eight points with seven rebounds and four assists across 37 minutes in Game 2.

He is set to return from a two-game absence after the team removed him from the injury report. Denver and Minnesota met four times during the regular season, but Gordon was in the lineup for only two of the games. He averaged 16.0 points, 6.5 rebounds, and 2.0 assists, making 50 percent of his attempts from outside.

The veteran has averaged 14.0 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 2.4 assists across 26.6 minutes over his recent March stretch, though fantasy managers should expect modest production if his workload stays capped.

Peyton Watson could still hold value in deeper leagues if Gordon's playing time remains carefully managed alongside Nikola Jokic.
