Gordon finished with 10 points (4-6 FG, 2-3 3Pt), one rebound and two assists over 22 minutes during Saturday's 124-107 loss to the Grizzlies.
EDGE Analysis
Gordon scored double-digits for just the second time this season, continuing what has been a modest start to his career in Philadelphia. His days of being an elite three-point threat are now well behind him, having connected on five triples across the first five games. For the sake of the 76ers, the hope is that the return of Paul George and Joel Embiid from knee injuries will ease Gordon's usage.

Gordon isn't in the starting lineup for Friday's game versus the Raptors, Josh Lewenberg of TSN.ca reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gordon will be replaced by Kyle Lowry in the starting five Friday. Gordon came off the bench in 44 of his 68 regular-season appearances for Phoenix last year, so he is no stranger to this role.

Gordon amassed just three points (1-5 FG, 1-3 3PT) in 18 minutes during Friday's 114-99 preseason loss to the Magic.
EDGE Analysis
Gordon was given the starting nod Friday but failed to deliver. Now in the twilight of his career, Gordon is merely a depth piece for the 76ers, providing them with a three-point scoring threat off the bench. While he will almost certainly have a handful of vintage performances throughout the season, Gordon is not someone who needs to be drafted, even in deeper formats.

Gordon will start Monday's preseason game against the Hawks.
EDGE Analysis
With Caleb Martin operating off the bench, Gordon gets a crack in the starting lineup. The veteran is expected to be a sparkplug off the bench for Philadelphia this season.

Gordon is expected to come off the bench during Friday's preseason game versus the Timberwolves, Keith Pompey of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gordon started in the 76ers' first exhibition game against the NBL Breakers, though Paul George will replace him in the starting five on Friday. Gordon is expected to play a prominent role off the bench behind Kelly Oubre this year.

Gordon agreed to a one-year, $3.3 million contract with the 76ers on Sunday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gordon spent the 2023-24 campaign in Phoenix and averaged 11.0 points, 2.2 three-pointers, 2.0 assists and 1.8 rebounds in 27.8 minutes per game over 68 regular-season appearances. He's converted 38.5 percent of his 5.4 three-point attempts per game over the past three seasons and should be a solid perimeter presence for his new team, but the extent of his role will likely depend on whether the 76ers land Paul George in free agency.

Gordon declined his $3.4 million player option for the 2024-25 season Thursday and will become a free agent, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gordon's output has declined over the past few seasons, but he shot 37.8 percent from beyond the arc during the 2023-24 campaign during his first year with the Suns. Over 68 regular-season appearances with Phoenix, he averaged 11.0 points and 2.0 assists in 27.8 minutes per game. He's expected to draw interest from multiple contenders as a free agent, so he could carve out another decent role next year, especially if he maintains his three-point efficiency.

EDGE Analysis
Gordon missed Phoenix's regular-season finale due to a migraine but returned to practice this week and should be good to go for the postseason. Over his last 15 appearances, Gordon has averaged 7.6 points, 1.5 assists and 1.1 steals in 21.9 minutes per game.
