DeAndre Jordan

DeAndre Jordan wants to be friends with Mark Cuban. With the Dallas Mavericks’ officially ousted from the NBA playoffs, they’re free to start planning for yet another crucial offseason. Dirk Nowitzki is pushing 37, Monta Ellis and Tyson Chandler are both free agents and the Rajon Rondo trade was bust. If the Mavericks plan on [...]

Needless to say, Clippers center DeAndre Jordan can really elevate. He has ridiculous leaping ability, even straight up and down with little momentum. At the drop of a hat. Or to go after an errant alley-oop pass from CP3 apparently….. Please enable Javascript to watch this video Jordan really reached for the sky on that [...]

We’ve always known how scary Clippers’ big man DeAndre Jordan can be as an opponent, especially when he decides to elevate for a death-defying dunk that no one should even dare try to contest.
