Aaron Gordon Out 4-6 Weeks with Grade 2 Hamstring Strain

Denver Nuggets forward Aaron Gordon has sustained a Grade 2 right hamstring strain and will be re-evaluated in 4-6 weeks, as confirmed by the team. Gordon, 30, missed Saturday's game and played only three minutes Friday after battling the injury. He's averaging a career-high 18.8 points, 5.9 rebounds, and shooting 44.4% from three, playing a key defensive role in the Nuggets' 12-4 start. His absence, alongside Christian Braun (ankle, 3-5 weeks out), significantly impacts the team.
