Despite all the injury woes Gordon's dealt with, he actually played over 60 games in each of the past two seasons. Although he hasn't topped 20 points per game since the 2011-2012 season, his peak ability has always been there, tempting fantasy owners to draft him. Past disappointments aside, this may be the year he finally puts all his injury issues behind him.
The pressure Anthony Davis puts on the opposing teams defenders allows Gordon more room to work from behind the arc. Last season, he shot .448 percent from the three point line – second only to Kyle Korver and ahead of the likes of Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson. With the Warriors's former associate head coach Alvin Gentry taking over in New Orleans, we could see a greater emphasis on utilizing Gordon's ability to shoot the three. If the injuries to the rest of New Oreans's back-court persist, Gordon could see a lot of usage over the coming season.
