Gordon’s Burden Grows Without Watson | Denver Nuggets News
Description
Denver’s championship hopes just got a lot tougher after trading Peyton Watson to the Cavaliers in a sign-and-trade — a move that leaves Aaron Gordon carrying an even heavier defensive load. Already hampered by injuries last season, Gordon’s health is now critical for Nikola Jokić’s title chances. Without Watson’s versatility on defense, Denver’s roster looks weaker and their defensive rating plummeted when Gordon missed time. With the West getting more competitive, Gordon can’t do it alone — players like Christian Braun must step up or the Nuggets’ title dreams could slip away.
