Gordon finished with 25 points (9-13 FG, 6-9 3Pt, 1-2 FT), two rebounds, two assists and one block in 33 minutes during Sunday's 116-113 victory over the Knicks.
ANALYSISGordon made the most of his expanded role on offense with
Kevin Durant (foot) and
Bradley Beal (back) out, and he has reached the 20-point mark in three of his last five appearances. The veteran sharpshooter will eventually regress to a complementary role once the Suns are at full strength, but he's benefiting from an uptick in usage rate of late. He's averaging 16.7 points while attempting 11.7 shots per game over his last seven appearances.
