Sixth Man of the Year: Eric Gordon, Houston Rockets
Stats: 17.7 points, 2.7 rebounds, 2.9 assists, 43.0 FG% and 40.9 3P%
James Harden is not the only player in Coach Mike D’Antoni’s new system that has benefited greatly.
Eric Gordon has finally found a change of scenery after being stuck in New Orleans and he sure is proving why that was just what he needed.
Through 41 games, Gordon has made 152 three-point field goals, second in the entire NBA and only four behind Stephen Curry.
Gordon has been an absolute scoring stud and lethal sniper off the bench for the Rockets this season and his case for the NBA’s Sixth Man of the Year is only strengthened by the success of his team.
