| Wed Apr 1 | 20:33 | Aaron Gordon Returns Against Utah |
Denver Nuggets forward/center Aaron Gordon (calf) is available for Wednesday's game against Utah but is expected to operate under a minutes restriction after missing the previous contest. The veteran has averaged 14.0 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 2.4 assists across 26.6 minutes over his recent March stretch, though fantasy managers should expect modest production if his workload stays capped. He posted 17 points, seven rebounds, and one block in 31 minutes in a prior meeting with Utah, showing his category versatility. Peyton Watson could still hold value in deeper leagues if Gordon's playing time remains carefully managed alongside Nikola Jokic. |

| Wed Apr 1 | 08:21 | Aaron Gordon Likely to Play Wednesday Night |
Denver Nuggets forward/center Aaron Gordon (calf) is probable for Wednesday's meeting with the Utah Jazz. After he missed Sunday's win over Golden State due to left calf tightness, Gordon was a full participant in Tuesday's practice. Peyton Watson was part of the starting unit against the Warriors and is likely heading back to the bench on Wednesday night. Still, Watson will maintain an important role and hinted on Tuesday that he might see more playing time against Utah after being recently limited to around 20 minutes per game. |

Denver Nuggets forward/center Aaron Gordon (calf) won't be in action on Sunday night against the Golden State Warriors, Bennett Durando of The Denver Post reports. He was a late addition to the injury report due to left calf tightness and won't be able to help his team after failing to shake off a questionable tag.

| Wed Mar 25 | 21:28 | Aaron Gordon Misses Second Leg of Back-to-Back |
Denver Nuggets forward/center Aaron Gordon (hamstring) has been ruled out for the second leg of a back-to-back on Wednesday night against the Dallas Mavericks. He carried a questionable tag on the initial injury report. Gordon hasn't played in both games of a back-to-back set since January, so his absence was expected against Dallas. Peyton Watson (hamstring) sat out Tuesday's win over Phoenix and will be Gordon's natural replacement in the lineup. |

Denver Nuggets forward/center Aaron Gordon (hamstring) is off the injury report and expected to return Friday against the Raptors after sitting out Wednesday for injury management on the second night of a back-to-back. He should slide right back into his usual frontcourt role, especially with Peyton Watson (hamstring) still out. Spencer Jones will likely move back to the bench once Gordon returns. Gordon should continue to offer steady rebounds and defensive production, though managers should still expect occasional rest games when Denver has back-to-back matchups. |

| Fri Mar 13 | 22:32 | Aaron Gordon Expected Back Saturday Vs. Lakers |
Denver Nuggets forward/center Aaron Gordon (hamstring) is listed as probable for Saturday's game against the Lakers after sitting out one contest for injury management. The veteran forward is still working his way back after a long layoff, so some inconsistency is expected. Gordon showed upside on March 9 with 23 points, 10 rebounds, three assists, and one steal in 29 minutes but followed with a quieter 23-minute outing two days later. He remains a hold in most formats, though expectations may need to be tempered in the short term. His return should push Spencer Jones back to a smaller bench role. |

| Thu Mar 12 | 20:26 | Aaron Gordon Inactive Against Spurs |
Denver Nuggets forward/center Aaron Gordon (hamstring) won't play on Thursday night against the San Antonio Spurs. The veteran put in a 22-minute shift in Wednesday's win over Houston and will rest as Denver wraps up a back-to-back set. Cameron Johnson, Spencer Jones, and Tim Hardaway Jr. are all candidates for more playing time on Thursday. Jones is likely to take Gordon's spot in the starting lineup. However, even as a starter, Jones hasn't put up good enough numbers to be a must-add player for fantasy teams. |

Denver Nuggets forward/center Aaron Gordon (hamstring) will be re-evaluated in 4-6 weeks, the team announced. Gordon recently reinjured his right hamstring and will miss a third consecutive game on Friday night against the Los Angeles Clippers. Luckily for Denver, Nikola Jokic (knee) is set to return against the Clippers, giving the frontcourt a massive boost. Cameron Johnson (knee) could also be back in the mix soon. In the meantime, Payton Watson, Bruce Brown, and Tim Hardaway Jr. will get plenty of burn in the rotation. |

Denver Nuggets forward/center Aaron Gordon (hamstring) will miss a second consecutive game on Thursday against the Brooklyn Nets. Last week, he reinjured his right hamstring, and the team hasn't provided any updates on Gordon. He was out for six weeks the first time he dealt with this injury. Denver is dealing with several injuries at the moment, which has increased the workload for Payton Watson, Tim Hardaway Jr., and Bruce Brown. All three made an impact in Tuesday's loss to Detroit and have a good chance to replicate their efforts on Thursday in a much more favorable matchup. |

| Sat Jan 24 | 17:55 | Aaron Gordon Ruled Out Against Memphis |
Denver Nuggets forward Aaron Gordon (hamstring) won't play on Sunday against Memphis. The 30-year-old played on Friday versus the Bucks, the second of a back-to-back. Unfortunately, he exited that contest because of a right hamstring strain, an injury that kept him off the floor for six weeks earlier in the season. There hasn't been much information released since Gordon suffered the injury. However, fantasy managers should expect to see his absence extend beyond Sunday's game. The Nuggets are banged up, with Nikola Jokic (knee), Cameron Johnson (knee), and Christian Braun (ankle) also on the shelf. As a result, guys like Tim Hardaway Jr., Zeke Nnaji, and Jalen Pickett could all see more scoring opportunities behind ... [ More] |

Denver Nuggets forward/center Aaron Gordon (hamstring) aggravated his right hamstring Friday and did not return after logging 13 points, six rebounds, three assists, and two steals in 16 minutes. Gordon recently missed extended time with the same injury, placing his short-term availability in doubt. Peyton Watson remains the safest fantasy option regardless of Gordon's status, averaging 20.6 points, 5.4 rebounds, 2.0 assists, 1.4 steals, and 1.8 blocks over his last five starts. Zeke Nnaji becomes a situational streamer only if Gordon sits, while Spencer Jones lacks consistent production to trust. |

He looked fine on Thursday, when he finished with 16 points, five assists, and five rebounds across 33 minutes of action. Fantasy managers will need to check back for another update ahead of tip-off. Spencer Jones and Zeke Nnaji would see increased roles if Gordon is downgraded to out. |

Denver Nuggets forward Aaron Gordon (hamstring) is ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. The Nuggets have decided to take the cautious approach and hold Gordon out for the second leg of the back-to-back set. The absence of Gordon should mean increased playing time for Zeke Nnaji and DaRon Holmes. Last time Gordon sat out on Jan. 5, Holmes drew the start, but Nnaji was the more productive player. Both players should be viewed as low-end streaming options with Gordon unavailable on Sunday. |
