Aaron Gordon’s Rise

Aaron Gordon has finally won over Scott Skiles.

He is a starting forward, with plenty to prove. Orlando fans have much to be upset about, but if there is one thing that keeps a smile on their face, it is Aaron Gordon. Highlights and all.

In the month of March, he has averaged 11.0 points and 7.2 rebounds. His improvement is obvious, so seeing Gordon play his best will be rewarding. Gordon has been one of the Magic’s best players since the All-Star Break and a continued workhorse defensively for this team.

His development has been one of the big things of the second half of the season. The expectation for Gordon is for him to continue to grow. A confident end to the season would go a long way to continuing that upward trajectory.
