Eric Gordon PG
Eric Gordon has been getting run at PG with harden out of the Lineup, especially with CP3 out.
Even on his Yahoo / Rotoworld update it spoke of him playing the PG role

He meets the criteria and should have already had PG eligibility by now.

Basketball Reference states that Eric Gordon is spending 78% of his playing time as point guard. Although this Position Estimate may not be completely accurate (maybe because James Harden is incorrectly tagged as the shooting guard), it just shows that Eric Gordon is spending some of his playing time as point guard during games.

More information:
Finally, D'Antoni struck upon the mix he wanted, finding his backup point guard and the second-unit combination by looking at his starters. Eric Gordon, who moved into the starting lineup to replace Paul, also took over Paul's planned role as the second-team point guard.

What's going on? How long does it take to gather feedback?
Excerpt, "Gordon also played a handful of minutes at point guard in relief of James Harden, and considering how well he did tonight, we may see more of that going forward"
Full Post:
Eric Gordon scored a season-high 27 points in Monday's loss to Memphis, adding seven assists, four rebounds and five 3-pointers in 33 minutes.
Gordon also played a handful of minutes at point guard in relief of James Harden, and considering how well he did tonight, we may see more of that going forward until Chris Paul (knee) returns in a few weeks. Gordon hit 8-of-20 shots and 6-of-7 from the line, and he's off to a hot start to the season with 23.5 points and 2.5 triples per game. He's a must-start player until further notice.It's hard to get well documented information that says PLAYER X is playing POSITION Y, but I've literally found it for you. If you don't believe me tune into a Rockets game and watch what happens when James Harden goes to the bench.
