Gordon jammed his right ring finger Tuesday against the Timberwolves and won't return, the New Orleans Times-Picayune's John Reid reports.

Analysis:

Gordon had 11 points, one rebound, three assists, and one steal in 25 minutes before exiting. He'll be re-evaluated prior to Thursday's game against the Pistons. If he's forced to miss further time, Norris Cole, Tyreke Evans, and Jrue Holiday would be asked to pick up the slack in the backcourt.
