Aaron Gordon gives Magic scoring punch with perimeter proficiency

Aaron Gordon looked more like his old self Thursday against the New York Knicks. He looked even better Friday against the Brooklyn Nets.

His elevated play certainly is a bonus for the Orlando Magic, who are happy to have him back in the lineup.

Gordon delivered a season-high 38 points that included a career-best seven 3-pointers during Friday’s 121-113 win over the Nets as the Magic snapped a nine-game losing streak.

After missing 15 games because of a sprained ankle, Gordon returned to the lineup March 12 as the Magic began the second half of their schedule in Miami.
