Nuggets Near Full Strength as Gordon and Watson Move Closer to Return
Denver is closing in on a fully healthy rotation as Aaron Gordon and Peyton Watson progress in their returns from hamstring injuries. With about 20 games left, coach David Adelman hopes to have the full group back soon, possibly by next Thursday against the Lakers, though the team will proceed cautiously given Gordon’s injury history. Gordon has been involved in conditioning and some non-contact work, while Watson indicated he’ll be back soon, and both returns are seen as key to improving defense and playoff contention for the Nuggets.
