Rockets replacing Ryan Anderson (back) with Eric Gordon against Utah
Houston Rockets shooting guard Eric Gordon will move into the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Utah Jazz, with forward/center Ryan Anderson (back) unavailable.
What It Means:
Gordon is averaging 15.8 points, 2.8 3-pointers, 3.1 rebounds, 2.3 assists on 39.3 percent shooting from the field in five starts this season -- numbers that are actually worse than what he posts as a reserve. He doesn't quite carry as much DFS appeal as it may initially seem in a tough matchup versus the Jazz. Sam Dekker could also see a little extra run than normal.
With Anderson out, numberFire's metrics project Gordon to turn in 17.0 points, 2.9 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 2.1 3-pointers in 34.6 minutes on Wednesday night.
