Nuggets' Aaron Gordon: Listed probable for Thursday
Gordon is probable to play Thursday versus Cleveland due to a right calf strain.
Gordon has appeared in Denver's last two contests after a 10-game absence due to a right calf strain, so his injury designation is more likely related to practice management than an aggravation of any kind. He is on track to suit up Thursday.

Nuggets' Aaron Gordon: Nears double-double
Gordon accumulated 15 points (4-6 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 4-6 FT), nine rebounds and five assists across 33 minutes during Tuesday's 119-115 win over the Warriors.
Gordon returned to the starting lineup in this matchup and made his presence felt right away, finishing just one rebound away from a double-double and allowing Nikola Jokic to play with even more freedom in the frontcourt. Gordon, who missed 10 games between Nov. 6 and Nov. 27, should remain in a starting role going forward due to the rapport he has with Jokic in the frontcourt. Given that he cleared the 30-minute threshold in Tuesday's win, he's not likely to have any sort of minutes restriction going forward.

Nuggets' Aaron Gordon: Likely to play Tuesday vs. Warriors
Gordon (calf) is listed as probable for Tuesday's game against Golden State.
Gordon returned from a 10-game absence due to a right calf strain Sunday against the Clippers, and he finished with 10 points, four assists, one rebound and one steal over 24 minutes in a reserve role. It's unclear whether Gordon will supplant Peyton Watson (groin) in the Nuggets' starting lineup for Tuesday's NBA Cup game.

Nuggets' Aaron Gordon: Chips in off bench in return
Gordon (calf) tallied 10 points (4-7 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four assists, one rebound and one steal across 24 minutes in Sunday's 126-122 loss to the Clippers.
Though he's eventually expected to supplant Peyton Watson in the starting five, Gordon was eased back into action in a bench role after missing the Nuggets' previous 10 games with a right calf strain. The Nuggets also managed Gordon's playing time in his return, but he was still able to make some useful contributions across the board during his time on the court. Regardless if he starts in the Nuggets' next game Tuesday versus the Warriors, expect Gordon to see at least a mild boost in minutes.

Nuggets' Aaron Gordon: Upgraded to questionable Sunday
Gordon (calf) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Clippers.
Gordon has missed 10 straight outings due to a right calf strain, though his status being upgraded from doubtful to questionable bodes well for his potential return to game action soon. Even If the 29-year-old forward is deemed available Sunday, he will likely remain under a minutes restriction. If Gordon is sidelined once again, his next chance to return will come in Tuesday's NBA Cup matchup versus Golden State.

Nuggets' Aaron Gordon: Nearing return
Gordon (calf) is getting close to a return, according to head coach Michael Malone, Vinny Benedetto of The Denver Gazette reports.
Gordon participated in Saturday's practice, and his status for Sunday's game against the Clippers remains uncertain. He has not returned to game action since aggravating his right calf strain on Nov. 4. Prior to the injury, the 29-year-old averaged 17.5 points, 7.8 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 0.8 steals across 34.7 minutes in six games. Whenever he does get the green light to return, look for the Nuggets to ease him back into the swing of things.

Nuggets' Aaron Gordon: Out indefinitely
Coach Michael Malone said Monday that Gordon (calf) doesn't have a set timetable for a return and that the Nuggets will remain cautious with him, Nuggets beat writer Matt Brooks reports.
Gordon hasn't returned to game action since aggravating the right calf strain in the Nov. 4 win over Toronto. Before Nov. 4, the 29-year-old averaged 17.5 points, 7.8 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 0.8 steals in 34.7 minutes per game over his first six regular-season appearances. In Gordon's absence, Peyton Watson (hip) and Julian Strawther should both continue to see an uptick in playing time.

Nuggets' Aaron Gordon: Slated to miss multiple weeks
Gordon will miss multiple weeks due to a right calf strain he aggravated during Monday's win over the Raptors, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
Gordon was initially trying to play through the injury and with good results -- he averaged 17.5 points, 7.8 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 0.8 steals in 34.7 minutes per game over his first six appearances. However, he lasted only four minutes before being removed from Monday's game. The timeline is vague, but it wouldn't be surprising if Gordon missed at least a month. In his absence, Peyton Watson and Julian Strawther are the most likely candidates to see increased roles, but Hunter Tyson could also work his way into the rotation. However, the offense will presumably run through Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray (concussion), with Russell Westbrook seeing a boost until Murray is cleared to return.
