Denver Nuggets power forward Aaron Gordon is expected to miss multiple weeks with a strained right calf, per multiple reports. The people spoke on condition of anonymity Tuesday because the extent of the injury hasn’t been announced. Gordon left Monday’s win over Toronto in the first quarter and didn’t return.

The Nuggets forward is dealing with an injury early in the 2024-25 season. Here's what to know about Gordon's injury and when he could return.

Not only is Gordon a key piece for the Nuggets on both ends of the floor, but they have already barely been staying afloat this season.
