- Aaron Gordon is officially questionable for Thursday’s Game 6 in Minnesota, which Denver must win after falling behind 3-2 in the series.
- ESPN’s Shams Charania said the Nuggets are preparing to be without Gordon and are prioritizing caution with his calf strain.
- Head coach David Adelman said he has no idea if Gordon will play and noted the forward’s mobility dropped in the second half of Game 4.
- Gordon has played in three of five games and is averaging 11.3 points, 5.3 rebounds and 2.3 assists, and he missed Games 3 and 5 with left calf tightness.
- Peyton Watson remains out with a hamstring injury, pushing reserves into bigger roles, including Spencer Jones, who scored 20 points in Game 5.
