76ers Re-sign Veteran Eric Gordon for 2025-26 Season
The Philadelphia 76ers have re-signed veteran shooting guard Eric Gordon for the 2025-26 NBA season on a one-year veteran minimum contract, reportedly worth $3.6 million but only counting $2.3 million against the team's salary cap due to an NBA exception. Gordon, a 17-year NBA veteran and former Sixth Man of the Year, struggled with injuries last season, playing only 39 games and averaging a career-low 6.8 points per game, but remains a valuable three-point shooter with a 40.9% accuracy from beyond the arc. The Sixers see Gordon’s return as a way to bring leadership and mentorship to younger players, notably rising star VJ Edgecombe, the No. 3 overall pick in the 2025 draft, with whom Gordon shares a Bahamian connection. While some fans are displeased with the signing due to Gordon’s diminished on-court production and the perceived roster spot cost, the team’s front office, including president Daryl Morey, values Gordon’s shooting ability and off-court contributions. The signing comes amid roster changes, including the departure of Guerschon Yabusele to the New York Knicks and the addition of players like Trendon Watford. The Sixers aim to blend experience with youth as they recover from a challenging 24-58 season marked by injuries and underperformance.
