The Round Face Mamba
It feels like Eric Gordon has been around the NBA forever. While some might look at his unbelievably round face and chuckle, or take notice of the "Round Face Mamba" nickname, Gordon is one of those guys that has been plagued by injuries throughout his career. However, when on the court, it is hard to find someone more consistent. A good player off the bench for the Rockets, Gordon has always had a knack for scoring the basketball. He was recognized for that ability with the Sixth Man of the Year Award.
Despite being well-known for his career in college at Indiana, Gordon also has some off-the-court influence in Bloomington. On the campus, you can find his pizza restaurant, "Eric Gordon's Greek Pizzeria" across from Memorial Stadium, home of the Hoosiers football team. Despite only playing one season in college, it appears that he never forgot his Indianapolis roots.Â
