Denver Nuggets forward Aaron Gordon will miss multiple weeks due to a right calf strain, sources told ESPN's Shams Charania.
Gordon played four minutes in Monday's victory over the Toronto Raptors. He had been listed as probable with calf inflammation and a knee contusion.
The 29-year-old is averaging 15.4 points, 6.7 rebounds, and 3.1 assists this season. Denver signed Gordon to a four-year, $133-million contract extension before the start of the campaign.
Denver is also missing Jamal Murray, who sat out the last two games due to a concussion.
The Nuggets are 4-3 and face the undefeated Oklahoma City Thunder on Wednesday.
