Nuggets' Aaron Gordon Aggravates Hamstring, Exits Friday's Game

Aaron Gordon aggravated his right hamstring strain during Friday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks, exiting in the second quarter and not returning. He finished with 13 points, six rebounds, three assists, and two steals in 16 minutes. Gordon had initially been cleared to play despite managing the strain, having previously missed over a month (19 games) due to the same injury. His status for Sunday's game against the Grizzlies is uncertain, with DaRon Holmes and Hunter Tyson potential candidates for increased minutes. Coach Adelman is optimistic it's not as severe as the previous strain.
