New Orleans Hornets shooting guard Eric Gordon will complete his final rehabilitation work in Los Angeles this week before heading back to New Orleans to be re-evaluated. Gordon has missed all 23 games this season because of an injury situation involving his right knee.

Gordon tweeted Monday that he will be returning to New Orleans after this week and that he is excited about getting back with the team.

Coach Monty Williams confirmed that they will find out this weekend how close Gordon is toward returning.

“I haven’t seen him in a couple of weeks, so we’ll find out this weekend,” Williams said.
