Start: Eric Gordon, Rockets

22% start rate in CBS leagues

Gordon has been a steadying veteran presence on a poor Rockets team, and he enters Week 7 on an 11-game stretch in which he’s averaged 13.3 points, 2.8 assists and 2.3 rebounds while shooting an impressive 40.0 percent from three-point range.
