Gordon underwent surgery Friday to repair a broken jaw, NBA.com reports.

Analysis:

Gordon, who led the Orlando Summer League in scoring and rebounding, suffered the injury while "horsing around" with his older brother, Drew, while visiting family. The Arizona product is expected to require several weeks to recover, but the team expects him to be ready before the start of the regular season. Gordon could miss part of the preseason, however, and it would appear that his status for the start of training camp is in serious jeopardy.
