Houston Rockets shooting guard Eric Gordon will miss approximately 6 weeks after undergoing arthroscopic right knee surgery on Wednesday.
This was reported on Tuesday. Ben McLemore is expected to enter the starting lineup on Wednesday against the Los Angeles Clippers. Austin Rivers should also see extended minutes off the bench. Danuel House Jr. (back) is doubtful.
Gordon is averaging only 10.9 points and 2.3 3-pointers on 30.9 percent shooting from the floor and 28.4 percent shooting from distance. He's scoring 15.3 FanDuel points per game.
