Aaron Gordon will miss Thursday’s matchup against the Timberwolves due to a calf injury, marking the third absence in the series for the Nuggets’ starting power forward. In his 12th NBA season, Gordon’s injury woes have limited his playoff contributions to just three of five games, where he averaged 11.3 points and 5.3 rebounds. Spencer Jones, who impressed with 20 points and four three-pointers in Game 5, is expected to start in Gordon’s place once more.
