Aaron Gordon's participation in Game 6 of the Denver Nuggets' first-round playoff series against the Timberwolves is uncertain due to a left calf tightness, which Gordon experienced during a Game 2 loss and missed Game 3 of the previous game. He played in Game 4 but was visibly struggling in 23 minutes of action and sat out for Game 5, but is now listed as questionable for Game 6. Coach David Adelman expressed concern over Gordon's mobility and ability to stay on the court if he is limited. The Nuggets are currently trailing 3-2 to Minnesota, facing two more elimination games if they advance past the first round. Meanwhile, the Timberwolves are adapting to life without their starting backcourt as they prepare for their only chance to close out the series at home.
