ERIC GORDON NEWS

Questionable for Monday Gordon is questionable for Monday's game versus Portland due to right calf soreness.

Impact Gordon was a late addition to the injury report. Kevin Durant has already been ruled out with a hamstring issue, so Bradley Beal is looking at a bump in usage Monday. Grayson Allen could also have more touches coming his way if Gordon is unable to suit up.

Impact This was the expectation for Friday, as the Suns are getting Bradley Beal back from his ankle injury.

Drains seven triples Wednesday Gordon had 27 points (10-15 FG, 7-11 3Pt), one assist and three blocks over 39 minutes during Wednesday's 129-113 win over the Rockets.

Impact Gordon matched Kevin Durant with a team-high 27 points in the win, including an impressive 7-of-11 from the perimeter. He added three blocks for good measure, rewarding anyone who streamed him in or simply forgot to drop him. Until the Suns are fully healthy, Gordon should remain a viable streaming option for anyone needing a boost in three-pointers.

Drains four threes Friday Gordon closed Friday's 110-89 win over the Grizzlies with 20 points (6-15 FG, 4-11 3Pt, 4-4 FT), one rebound and two assists across 34 minutes.

The veteran has drained multiple threes while scoring in double digits in each of his last seven contests, and his scoring prowess, as well as his presence in the stating lineup while Bradley Beal (back) is out, has helped him stay relevant in most fantasy formats.
