The Nuggets won the game 121-119 for their second straight victory, but Gordon’s absence will be a huge blow for Denver with guard Jamal Murray currently in the league’s concussion protocol.
The 29-year-old is averaging 15.4 points and 6.7 rebounds this season while playing 30 minutes a night.
Denver will host Oklahoma City next on Wednesday night.
