Aaron Gordon
4th pick by the Orlando Magic in 2014
When Aaron Gordon announced he was coming to Arizona I was shocked. All I had heard for months is how the Cats got an athletic kid named Rondae Jefferson. That was good enough for me and then Gordon came out of nowhere. Gordon and Jefferson. Yes please.
Rondae decided to go by Hollis-Jefferson and Gordon’s defense and raw offensive ability made him an All Pac-12 First Team member and Pac-12 Freshman of the Year.
Gordon’s dunks and defense helped the Cats reach the Elite Eight in 2014.
He just finished his first season in the NBA with Orlando.
