Gordon will join the first unit for Thursday's game against the Warriors, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gordon will draw the starting nod Thursday with Marcus Morris (elbow) sidelined, marking his first start in a Clippers uniform. The 34-year-old wing has gotten off to a rocky start in Los Angeles, averaging just 5.6 points and 2.8 assists in 20.0 minutes per game across his first five appearances, while being held scoreless in his last two games.

Gordon notched zero points (0-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt), three rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal across 25 minutes during Sunday's 134-124 overtime loss to Denver.
EDGE Analysis
Gordon has come off the bench in his first four appearances with the Clippers, and he was held scoreless for the second time this season Sunday, even though the game went into overtime. He's been held under 10 points in three of his outings with his new team and has averaged 7.0 points and 3.5 assists in 23.3 minutes per game over that stretch.

Gordon will make his Clippers' debut Tuesday against the Warriors, Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran guard will make his first appearance in a Clippers uniform after being acquired from Houston at the trade deadline. Gordon averaged 13.1 points, 2.1 rebounds and 2.9 assists across 30.2 minutes per game over his 47 appearances with the Rockets this season. The likes of Norman Powell and Amir Coffey may see their usage reduced with Gordon now in the lineup.

Gordon will not play in Friday's game against the Bucks, Andrew Greif of the Los Angeles Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gordon was acquired by the Clippers on Thursday in a trade with the Rockets and, as expected, is unavailable for Friday's tilt. The veteran wing will have a few days to get settled in with the Clippers before their next game against the Warriors on Tuesday.

The Clippers acquired Gordon and three second-round picks Thursday as part of a three-team trade that sent John Wall (abdomen), Danny Green and a 2023 first-round pick swap to the Rockets and Luke Kennard to the Grizzlies, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gordon has played a prominent role in Houston over the last several seasons, and he averaged 13.1 points, 2.9 assists, 2.1 rebounds and 1.8 three-pointers in 30.2 minutes per game over 47 appearances during the 2022-23 season. Though his playing time and usage will almost certainly take a hit with the move to the Clippers while both Paul George and Kawhi Leonard are healthy, Gordon should pair with Norman Powell to provide L.A.'s two stars with some knockdown shooting on the perimeter.

Gordon closed with 16 points (5-7 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 3-4 FT), eight assists, two steals and one block across 31 minutes during Monday's 140-120 loss to the Kings.
EDGE Analysis
In what seems like an annual tradition, Gordon is the subject of trade rumors as Thursday's deadline approaches. He's at least helped the Rockets' negotiating power by turning in one of his best offensive runs of the season. Over his last four outings, Gordon is averaging 23.3 points, 5.8 assists and 2.3 three-pointers in 33.5 minutes while shooting 55.4 percent from the field. Gordon's role likely won't change much if he remains in Houston after the deadline, but his playing time and fantasy value would almost certainly decline if he's moved somewhere else.

Gordon (rest) isn't on the injury report for Monday's game against Sacramento.
EDGE Analysis
Gordon sat out against the Thunder on Saturday for rest purposes but will be back in action against the Kings. He's topped 20 points in his last three appearances and has averaged 25.7 points, 5.0 assists, 2.0 rebounds and 1.7 steals in 34.3 minutes per game during that time.

Gordon won't play in Saturday's matchup with the Thunder for rest purposes, Adam Spolane of Sports Radio 610 Houston reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Rockets are playing the second night of a back-to-back set, so Gordon will get a breather. Gordon earned the rest after producing a season-high 28 points (10-15 FG, 2-5 3PT, 6-7 FT) to go with five assists, three rebound and one steal across 34 minutes in Friday's 117-111 loss to Toronto. After sitting Saturday, Gordon should slot back into the starting five for the Rockets' next game Monday against the Kings.

Gordon posted 28 points (10-15 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 6-7 FT), three rebounds, five assists and one steal in 34 minutes during Friday's 117-111 loss to Toronto.
EDGE Analysis
Gordon scored at least 24 points for the third straight game, continuing easily his best stretch of the season. He remains someone who could very well be on the move come next Thursday, although that is something we have been saying for the past three seasons. He can be streamed in for points for now, but as for what the future holds, it's really anyone's guess.

Gordon will take the floor Friday but isn't expected to suit up Saturday versus the Thunder, Adam Spolane of Sports Radio 610 Houston reports.
EDGE Analysis
Head coach Stephen Silas indicated that a final decision on his status hasn't been made at this point. If Gordon is ultimately held out, Josh Christopher could make another spot start, having subbed into the starting lineup for Gordon the last time he sat Jan. 26 versus the Cavaliers.
