Aaron Gordon barely had time to break a sweat in tonight’s NBA Cup matchup against the Houston Rockets. Three minutes into the game, the veteran forward subbed out of the game, holding the back of his right leg. He was out for the rest of the game, and despite Denver’s win, there was concern for his condition.

After the game, Nuggets head coach David Adelman addressed the media and issued an update on Gordon’s status. “Adelman: Aaron Gordon (hamstring) expected to miss some time,” Underdog posted on X. It’s on his right hamstring, and before the game his status was already ‘questionable’: he was managing a bilateral hamstring situation. He was upgraded to ‘probable’ before the game, but that now seems like a mistake.

Gordon, who has already missed time due to injury earlier in the season, is having a career year, shooting a blistering 45.2% from three for a career-high 20.3 points per game.
