Gordon (back) is doubtful to play Thursday against Oklahoma City, Nakia Hogan of the New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.

Analysis:

Gordon said his back tightened up after Tuesday's exhibition, and he's been dealing with spasms for the past day or so. While Gordon indicated the spasms are nothing serious, he'll likely be held out of action Thursday to avoid any aggravation.
