"The London-born Gordon told the Daily Mirror: “I am playing in the summer and I’m really excited about it.“I’m looking forward to the Olympics. I’ve got a lot of family there so it will be nice to see them and it will be a great competition with us really looking to be the surprise team.”"

Gordon will be reunited with former Bulls teammate Luol Deng, who also plans to play for Great Britain:

"Gordon is excited about playing along side Deng once more.“It’s going to be great, it’ll be like old times in Chicago,” he said.“I haven’t had the chance to play with him since leaving the Bulls so I’m looking forward to it.”"
