After sealing the victory that came back from the tie and made the series 3-2 for the Denver Nuggets, the team quickly planned a dinner at their favorite restaurant. The entire squad was invited to celebrate the victory that completed the comeback. Except for one person: Aaron Gordon. According to account Sam Amick The Athleti, the forward asked DeAndre Jordan, the team’s spiritual leader, if he could come. Although he already knew the answer.
The refusal was obvious to both of them because of what happened on Thursday of the previous week. The day before the Denver Nuggets’ first game away from home during this series. The match after receiving a correction at home that made it 2-0 against them in the series. That night the squad also held an evening to unite the entire team at a difficult time. But Gordon didn’t come. The rest is history.
The Nuggets managed to come back from 2-0 down and tonight they seek to close the series in Minnesota. In this stretch, Aaron Gordon has been sublime. Starring in what may be the best game of his career in the fourth game and being the main defender (and the only one capable of stopping Anthony Edwards one on one). Unfortunately, dinner invitations do not seem to be earned by what is done on the track, but rather by pure superstitious speculation.

“Maybe we’ll see you in the next round,” DeAndre Jordan told Gordon. Perhaps giving him incentives to go out on the field again as he has done in these last three games.
