Nuggets' Aaron Gordon (shoulder) could sit Thursday

Denver Nuggets forward Aaron Gordon (right shoulder inflammation) has been added to the injury report as questionable for Thursday versus the Phoenix Suns.

What It Means:

The Nuggets' entire starting lineup is listed as questionable, so Gordon could see a larger role than usual if he's active. However, it looks like Denver is leaning toward holding everyone out in Phoenix. Vlatko Cancar, Jeff Green, and Christian Braun will be in line for more minutes without Gordon. Zeke Nnaji (knee, questionable) could also benefit if he's cleared to return.

Gordon has a $6,700 salary on Thursday’s five-game slate and numberFire's models project him for 25.2 FanDuel points over 28.0 minutes. Per our NBA Heat Map, the Nuggets' implied total (106.75) is second-lowest out of 12 active teams while the game total is 224.0.
