The Philadelphia 76ers traded veteran guard Eric Gordon to the Memphis Grizzlies on Thursday for a second-round draft pick swap in 2032 and the rights to shooting guard Justinian Jessup.
The deal was designed to take Gordon's $2,296,274 salary off Philadelphia's books. Gordon, 37, averaged 5.5 points in six games off the bench for the Sixers this season. In 18 career NBA seasons, including seven with the Houston Rockets, Gordon has averaged 15.2 points with 2.7 assists in 931 games (665 starts).
Jessup, a 27-year-old Colorado native who played four seasons at Boise State, averages 7.6 points per game coming off the bench for Bayern Munich in the EuroLeague. He was a second-round draft pick by the Golden State Warriors in 2020 and his rights were traded to the Memphis Grizzlies in July 2025.
