The Rockets are considered the team that could drive a lot of deals this offseason, and according to "Open Stand" reporter Jack Fisher, the Suns are interested in Rockets veteran Eric Gordon:
"The Suns have struggled to trade Dario Saric and it looks like the Suns are looking to upgrade their wing rotation depth, and Eric Gordon is considered a viable target by league sources as he spends successful time with the Rockets with Chris Paul."
The Suns are currently one of the best competitive teams in the league, and after getting Eric Gordon, the Suns will have a significant improvement in defensive and offensive firepower in the backcourt, of course, the Suns may still need to sacrifice future draft picks to get a tough player like Gordon from the Rockets.
But not only the Suns, there have been many teams that have been more interested in Gordon in the past period of time, and on the question of which deals the Rockets may promote involving Eric Gordon before the trade deadline, the US media Salman Ali proposed the following three plans in an article:
Scenario 1:
The Rockets got: Joe Ingles, 2022 Jazz second-round picks, 2024 Jazz first-round picks
Jazz gets: Eric Gordon
Scenario two:
The Rockets get: Eric Bledsoe, 2022 Clippers second-round picks, 2025 Clippers second-round picks
Clippers get: Eric Gordon
Scenario three:
The Rockets get: Cameron Payne, Dario Saric, 2024 Suns first-round picks
Suns get: Eric Gordon
The above is indeed a deal that the Rockets can consider, after all, Eric Gordon is still a player with a better deal value in the Rockets, but they are a team in the reconstruction stage, so the Rockets really have no reason to give up such a potential deal if they can return to future draft picks.
