Fantasy Analysis

The 26-year-old Gordon averaged 20.7 points last season for Chicago, leading the team in scoring for the fourth straight year. Gordon heads into a situation where he could continue to play a prominent sixth man role as a top scorer off the bench. He may have to share touches with Richard Hamilton, but there should be enough to go around.

"My main goal is winning and I'm going to have success as long as I keep my eyes set on that and my mind focused on that." 79//2009
