The Philadelphia 76ers and Phoenix Suns are among the teams expressing interest in Houston Rockets guard Eric Gordon, ESPN's Brian Windhorst reports.
Gordon has spent the last six campaigns with the Rockets. The former Sixth Man of the Year averaged 13.4 points on 47.5% shooting - including a 41.2% clip from downtown - over 57 appearances last season.
Gordon has two years remaining on his $75.6-million contract, but his salary for the 2023-24 campaign is non-guaranteed. The veteran would provide either club with a dependable 3-and-D option.
Philadelphia and Phoenix finished tied for 20th in 3-pointers made per game last season.
A move to the desert would reunite Gordon with former backcourt mate Chris Paul.
