EDGE Analysis

Through 36 games, Gordon is legitimately an early favorite to win the Sixth Man of the Year award. His scoring style -- catch-and-shoot threes combined with crafty junkyard drives -- has meshed perfectly with Houston's offensive identity, and he's now averaging 17.7 points per game, his highest mark since 2012.
