Aaron Gordon scores 12 points in loss

Aaron Gordon recorded 12 points (5-11 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds, two assists, and a steal over 37 minutes in a road overtime loss in Detroit on Wednesday.

Fantasy Implications: Gordon does not regularly deliver jaw-dropping numbers, but he remains a steady contributor to both his real team and fantasy owners alike. In his eight January games, the 23-year-old forward is averaging 16.9 points, 7.8 rebounds, 3.6 assists, 0.8 steals and 0.5 blocks over 35.5 minutes. He is averaging, however, only 24.2 percent (8-for-33) from beyond the three-point arc during that stretch.
