Ben Gordon has signed a D-League contract, according to Adam Johnson of D-League Digest (Twitter link). Gordon will be placed on waivers, per D-League rules, and the Windy City Bulls, Chicago’s affiliate, currently own the top waiver order spot.
The Bulls selected Gordon with the No. 3 overall pick in 2004 and he played five seasons with the franchise before signing a lucrative five-year deal with the Pistons during the summer of 2009. He was traded to Charlotte halfway through that deal, and the team waived him before he was able to finish the contract.
The 33-year-old Gordon last played in the NBA for the Magic during the 2014/15 season. He’s a career 40.1% shooter from behind the arc and he could look use the D-League as a path toward returning to the NBA, as Gary Neal just did.
Good to see a UConn guard following in all the other UConn guards footsteps and join the Dleague.
Yep, Kemba, Ray, Rip, etc are great DLeague guys…..
got em coach haha
Good thing they had those 3. El-Amin, Williams, Wiggins, Boatright, Price, Dyson, never mind big men Thabeet, Armstrong, Boone, and Adrien.
That’s just from the top of my mind.
UConn stands for Bust U
You named 10 guys. 4 were first round picks. The rest were good college players. You forgot Cliff, Emeka, Donyell, Rudy, Kemba, Ray, Rip, Caron, Drummond….not to mention 4 rings.
Drummond doesn’t even play at the end of games cuz he can’t make a free throw!
shoulda joined the 3-on-3 league
sad, I remember him in that Boston series years back and he was dominant on the offensive end. His worst decision was joining the pistons, basketball wise not financially obviously
