No one is interested in the trading market: NBA guard Eric Gordon renews his contract with 76ers for a 1-year veteran

On July 2, according to a reporter from the NBA Philadelphia 76ers, the defender Eric Gordon once again returned to the 76ers with a contract of $3.6 million in a veteran's basic salary, but only occupied $2.3 million in salary space of $2.3 million, and the remaining salary was paid through a trading exception. He had previously chosen to refuse to execute the $3.4 million player option contract with the 76ers in the 2025-2026 season, and he will resume his free self and re-enter the offseason trading market. However, given his average data performance last season and his trading market did not receive more olive branches from the team during the offseason, the 76ers still welcomed the veteran's return, so the two sides reached this veteran's basic salary contract.

36-year-old Eric Gordon plays as a shooting guard and plays for the Philadelphia 76ers in the 2024-2025 season. He plays in a total of 39 games in the regular season, averages 19.7 minutes per game, scores 6.8 points + 1.2 rebounds + 1.7 assists + 0.7 steals + 0.3 blocks, shooting percentage of 42.0%, three-point shooting percentage of 40.0%, and free throw shooting percentage of 75.0%.

Eric Gordon is already 36 years old. Last season, he got the opportunity to play when the three giants Embiid, Paul George and Maxi were injured one after another, but his performance was not very outstanding. He had lost his aggressiveness and dominance back then and was completely suppressed by young defenders Grimes and others. Although I chose to return to the 76ers again in the offseason, I am afraid that it will still be reused in the new season. I can only sigh that time is unforgiving!
