Eric Gordon scores 12 points in return from injury on Saturday

Eric Gordon put up 12 points (5-11 FG, 2-6 3PT, 0-1 FT), three rebounds, three assists, and two steals in 24 minutes off the bench during the Rockets' 120-110 victory over the Jazz on Saturday.

Fantasy Impact:

Gordon came off the bench for the Rockets on Saturday, playing 24 minutes in his return from a bruised shin injury that kept him sidelined for nearly a month. With the additions of Robert Covington, Jeff Green, and Demarre Carroll, it's unclear what type of role Gordon will serve for Houston going forward. Whether he continues to come off the bench or re-enters the starting lineup, the 12th-year vet will remain a streaky scorer who sees his value increase each time Russell Westbrook or James Harden are forced to sit.
