Gordon has been a crucial component for the Nuggets in the Western Conference semifinals, from landing the game-winning buzzer-beater in Game 1 to a 22-point performance in Game 3. The loss of AG for Game 7 could be detrimental.
Meanwhile, Jamal Murray is battling an illness, which could impact his performance on Sunday. He was initially listed as questionable for Game 6 but played through it and combined with Nikola Jokic for 54 points.
Game 7 will be played Sunday in Oklahoma City, with the game airing on Denver7 at 1:30 p.m.
