Nuggets' Aaron Gordon: Coming off bench

Gordon (calf) will play off the bench Friday against the Heat, Vic Lombardi of Altitude Sports reports.

After sitting out Wednesday's game against the Rockets in the second leg of a back-to-back set, Gordon will shake off a questionable tag to suit up Friday. He's not 100 percent yet, however, so the Nuggets will likely watch his minutes closely with the second unit.
