Misadventure that could have turned into tragedy for Aaron Gordon: the player of the Denver Nuggets in the past few hours was attacked by a dog, which bit him both in the face and on his shooting hand, the right. As reported by Shams Charania the injuries are significant and required in total 21 stitches, Gordon will be out indefinitely.
The feeling is that Gordon will need several weeks to be able to return to play, a real bummer for the Nuggets. The player, one of the key pieces in winning the title last season, is scoring 13.6 points on average with also 6.9 rebounds and 3.4 assists.
Aaron Gordon suffered serious dog bites to his face and shooting right hand on Monday – requiring 21 stitches, sources say. It will take some time to heal, with no timetable yet. https://t.co/blxcSB01PM
