Is Aaron Gordon playing tonight vs Toronto Raptors? Denver Nuggets reveal foot injury report ahead of matchup against Fred VanVleet and co

Denver Nuggets battle a long injury list as Aaron Gordon is listed as questionable against the Toronto Raptors tonight. 

The reigning MVP is after the title yet again this season with the Nuggets making a strong playoff push. They have been 4-1 this past week and in their final matchup in the five-game stretch, it looked like they just gave up towards the end.

Despite the huge lead at one point in the game, Stephen Curry and co went on to beat them. Nuggets are currently at the 6th spot in the Western Conference and safely above the play-in tournament. With Jamal Murray and Michael Porter Jr. returning soon the Nuggets will be a strong playoff threat, as they have proved in the past.
