  "summary": "In 2012, the Charlotte Bobcats acquired Ben Gordon from Detroit in exchange for Corey Maggette. Gordon, a former 21-point-per-game scorer, entered his ninth NBA season with the team. During his first year in Charlotte, Gordon played 75 games, averaging 11.2 points, 1.7 rebounds, 1.9 assists, and 0.5 steals per game. However, his second year in the NBA's least populated market was not as successful, as he was waived after just 19 games, averaging 5.2 points. Despite this, Gordon would go on to have an impressive NBA career, playing a total of 744 games and averaging 14.9 points, 2.5 rebounds, 2.5 assists, and 0.7 steals.",
