Eric Gordon
Eric Gordon is the sixth man the Boston Celtics need to take the bench to another level. Coming off another strong effort off the bench for the 2023-24 season where he averaged 11 points, two assists, two rebounds, and a steal a game in 28 minutes of playing time, Gordon shot 44% overall from the field, 38% from three, and 80% from the stripe.
A concern may be at six-foot-three, EG is undersized for his position. He is 35 and we have to wonder if next year is the year the production starts to tail off. One of the keys to establishing a perennial contender from here on out is adding win-now veterans who anchor the culture of your locker room. The former sixth man of the year does the trick.
