Gordon spent last year with the Phoenix Suns, where he averaged 11 points in 27.2 minutes per game last year. He’s shot the ball well in the later years of his career. Last season in Phoenix he shot 44.3% from the field and 37.8% from behind the three-point arc.
Gordon of course has history with Daryl Morey. He was with the Houston Rockets for six seasons. It’s also worth noting that Gordon and Paul George, who appears likely to sign with the Sixers, were teammates with the Clippers in 2022-23.
While he likely won’t be counted on for as many minutes as the Suns did, the Sixers are certainly hoping Gordon still has some two-way juice left entering his age-36 season.
Ah, so they’re still doing the ex-Houston Rockets thing.
The Sixers, apparently one of the few teams who have realized free agency has started, have added another role player. The team will sign veteran guard Eric Gordon to a minimum contract, a source confirms to Liberty Ballers.
The Athletic’s Shams Charania first reported the signing. PHLY’s Kyle Neubeck first reported that it is a one-year deal for the veteran’s minimum.
Sixers reportedly sign veteran Eric Gordon. Gordon and Paul George were teammates with the Clippers in the 2022-23 season and played for the Rockets while Daryl Morey was their GM.
