A 2008 draft pick who spent his first three seasons with the team, the versatile guard comes off the bench now but has fit seamlessly since being reacquired last month.
It’s almost as if Eric Gordon knew he would be back. Why else did he hang onto his Los Angeles home for a decade before selling it?
After playing five seasons in New Orleans, Gordon signed a four-year contracrt, and later an extension, with the Houston Rockets, where he became an integral part of the landscape for seven seasons, winning the 2017 Sixth Man of the Year award and the 2017 All-Star Slam Dunk contest. And yet, his house remained in California.
Gordon has fit seamlessly with the Clippers. Coach Tyronn Lue often sends him in with the starting unit to close out games. Lue said that not only does Gordon’s presence on the floor stretch defenses because of his ability to shoot 3-4 feet behind the 3-point line, but he brings “a calmness when he’s on the floor.”
And now, with guard Norman Powell out indefinitely, Gordon again is expected to see additional minutes Saturday afternoon against the Orlando Magic.
