Aaron Gordon Displays Impeccable Winning Attitude

Aaron Gordon's response to the loss quickly gained traction for showing a win-first mindset. After refusing the game ball for his career night, he broke down the Nuggets’ performance, expressing confidence that they would bounce back quickly.
Gordon got solid support from Jamal Murray and Nikola Jokic, who put up strong performances. Murray finished with 25 points and 10 assists, while Jokic added 21 points, 13 rebounds, and 8 assists.
However, Stephen Curry's explosive performance, including 35 points in the second half and overtime, led to the Warriors' comeback. Curry hit the clutch three-pointer that tied things up, paving the way for Golden State's win.
