Gordon will miss Friday's game against the Mavericks due to a left thumb contusion, Adam Spolane of Sports Radio 610 Houston reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gordon will get the night off Friday to let his thumb heal ahead of the team's road trip that features three- games across four days. In his absence, Kenyon Martin and Tari Eason will likely receive extended action. Gordon's next chance to suit up will come Monday against the Bulls.

Gordon accumulated five points (2-7 FG, 1-2 3Pt), one assist and one steal in 28 minutes during Monday's 124-105 loss to the Spurs.
EDGE Analysis
Gordon continues to play significant minutes, adding to what is simply a confusing situation in Houston. Even though the Rockets are in rebuilding mode, the soon-to-be 34-year-old Gordon is averaging 29.5 minutes per contest, making it difficult for the team to open up more playing time for the likes of Josh Christopher, Tari Eason, Kenyon Martin and others. Since his contract for the 2023-24 season isn't guaranteed, Gordon could be a prime candidate to be moved ahead of the trade deadline. If he does end up being dealt, Gordon is unlikely to land with a team where he'll be able to fill as large of a role as he's currently handling in Houston.

Gordon ended with 10 points (3-10 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, one assist and two blocks in 23 minutes during Tuesday's 111-97 victory over the Suns.
EDGE Analysis
Gordon failed to score more than 15 points for the seventh consecutive game, continuing what has been a subpar season thus far. His name has been thrown around in trade rumors of late, something that seems to happen every season. The Rockets may be better off parting ways with him, if only to afford more playing time for some of their young pieces such as Tari Eason and TyTy Washington.

EDGE Analysis

Gordon amassed two points (1-4 FG, 0-3 3Pt) in 19 minutes during Wednesday's 120-100 loss to the Nuggets.
EDGE Analysis
Gordon played a season-low 19 minutes during Wednesday's defeat, and he matched his season-low mark of four field-goal attempts during the loss. He also failed to contribute in any secondary categories while also committing three turnovers. Over his three appearances since returning to the court from a groin injury, he's averaged 9.3 points in 24.7 minutes per game.
