Overview

  • Daryl Morey confirmed the one-year, $3.6 million contract carries a cap hit just under $2.3 million
  • Gordon declined his $3.5 million player option to re-enter free agency before finalizing the minimum deal
  • He is projected to slot in as the team’s fifth guard after undergoing wrist surgery that ended his 2024-25 season
  • Gordon shot 40.9% from three-point range last season, including a 52.6% clip in January that demonstrated his floor-spacing value
  • He will mentor No. 3 pick VJ Edgecombe, rekindling the chemistry they built on the Bahamian national team
