Rockets' Eric Gordon: Scores 20 off bench Saturday
Gordon scored 20 points (7-15 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 2-2 FT) while adding six rebounds, four assists and two steals in 36 minutes off the bench during Saturday's 111-109 overtime win over the Timberwolves.
Analysis:
It's the third time in the last four games Gordon's scored 20 or more, and he's been thriving this season as the designated second unit shooter in Mike d'Antoni's offense, averaging a career-high 3.7 three-pointers per game while scoring 17.5 points per game, his best showing in a mostly healthy campaign since he was a Clipper.
