Philadelphia 76ers guard Eric Gordon underwent arthroscopic surgery on his right wrist and will be re-evaluated in approximately three months, the team announced Thursday.
The timeline means the 36-year-old veteran will miss the rest of the regular season, and the Sixers are not currently in the postseason picture.
Gordon went under the knife on Wednesday. He is shooting 40.9 percent from 3-point range and averaging 6.8 points, 1.7 assists and 1.2 rebounds in 39 games (13 starts) this season.
Drafted No. 7 overall by the Los Angeles Clippers in 2008, Gordon was the Sixth Man of the Year in 2016-17 with the Houston Rockets.
Gordon has career averages of 15.3 points, 2.7 assists and 2.3 rebounds in 925 games (665 starts) with the Clippers (2008-11, 2023), New Orleans Hornets/Pelicans (2011-16), Rockets (2016-23), Phoenix Suns (2024) and 76ers.
