On May 17, bad news from the Denver Nuggets. According to famous reporter Shams, sources revealed that Aaron Gordon suffered a strain on his left hamstring and is likely to miss the Nuggets' tiebreak and the Thunder's life-and-death battle.

Nuggets G6 dragged the series into tiebreak at home, but at the last minute of the final quarter, the Nuggets suffered an injury. Gordon was accidentally injured while competing for the ball. He covered the back of his thigh, injured his hamstring, and limped and insisted on the game. After the game, Gordon said that his health was fine, but now his injury was diagnosed with a hamstring strain.

Gordon's injury scene reminds people of Curry's injury. When the Warriors were fighting against the Timberwolves, Curry accidentally strained his left hamstring and missed 4 games in a row due to injury. The Warriors lost four consecutive games and were eventually eliminated by the Timberwolves 4-1.

Gordon encountered a Curry-style tragedy and is likely to miss a life-and-death battle. Regarding Gordon's hamstring injury, medical expert Evan Jeffries said: This is our concern. A first-degree strain of the hamstring requires rest for 1-2 weeks, and a second-degree strain requires rest for 3-6 weeks.

Referring to Curry's situation, at present, Gordon is basically unable to play in the G7. If the Nuggets eliminate the Thunder with a tiebreak, Gordon is expected to miss the first few games of the Western Conference Finals.

Since this year's playoffs, Gordon has played 13 playoff games for the Nuggets, averaging 38.2 minutes per game and was able to score 16.8 points, 7.3 rebounds and 2.9 assists. Gordon was injured and severely damaged the Nuggets.
