Description: Los Angeles center DeAndre Jordan led the league in field goal percentage during the 2012-13 regular season (64.3 percent). | Insight: And it wasn't even that close. The Lakers' Dwight Howard was second with a 57.8 percent success rate from the field. Keep in mind that most of Jordan's baskets this season came on dunks. His free-throw percentage in 2012-13 was among the worst in the league (38.6 percent from that distance). | | |

Description: Clippers center DeAndre Jordan suffered a right knee injury Friday against the Hornets. | Insight: Jordan (five points, three rebounds in 23 minutes) only left the game for a brief time during the third quarter and it looks like he's still on track to play Saturday night versus the Grizzlies. Jordan's huge dunks get plenty of views on YouTube but he's really just an average fantasy player (8.7 ppg, 7.1 rpg). | | |
| 2/28/2013 8:41:00 PM |
Description: Los Angeles center DeAndre Jordan suffered a bloody nose Thursday night against Indiana. | Insight: He took a forearm to the face and is in the locker room getting X-rays right now. The Clippers are pretty thin at center so they'll probably be looking to get Jordan back into the game as quickly as possible. | | |
| Hot | 2/6/2013 9:55:00 PM |
Description: Clippers center DeAndre Jordan continued his recent rebounding binge with 14 boards Wednesday against the Magic. | Insight: Jordan has had free reign in the low post with Blake Griffin out of the lineup the past two games (18 rpg). He should be in for another big night Friday against the Heat. Despite having the best record in the Eastern Conference, Miami is last in the league in rebounds per game (39 rpg) and All-Star big man Chris Bosh (17.5 ppg, 7.1 rpg) might not play because of an illness. | | |
| 2/4/2013 10:18:00 PM |
Description: Los Angeles center DeAndre Jordan captured 22 rebounds Monday against the Wizards. | Insight: With Blake Griffin out, Jordan and Ronny Turiaf were the only low-post players that were available for the Clippers on Monday night. Monday was Jordan's 11th double-digit rebounding performance of the season. The 22 rebounds were a career-high for Jordan. | | |
| 1/30/2013 10:46:00 PM |
Description: Clippers center DeAndre Jordan had his first double-double since the first game of January Wednesday against Minnesota. | Insight: Jordan had 16 points and 12 rebounds with two blocks. It was his highest point total since Dec. 28 and his highest rebound total since Nov. 23. Though the center shoots close to 60 percent from the field, his 1.4 blocks per game are not enough to offset a disastrous free-throw percentage (.429) and low point and rebound averages (9.0, 6.9). | | |
| 12/29/2012 9:40:00 AM |
Description: Clippers center DeAndre Jordan double-doubled with 16 points and 10 boards Friday against the Jazz. Jordan made 6-of-8 from the field and is now shooting 59.4 percent on the season. | Insight: Jordan also picked up three steals in Friday's game. While the shooting percentage is nice, it's only coming on 6.7 attempts per game so it doesn't carry enough weight to offset his .417 free-throw percentage on 3.2 attempts per game. Even with 1.5 blocks per game, he's probably not worth your time in fantasy leagues. | | |
| 12/16/2012 11:37:00 AM |
Description: Clippers center DeAndre Jordan had his first double-double since Nov. 23 Saturday against Milwaukee, scoring 15 points with 11 rebounds. However, he failed to block a shot or record a steal for the third straight game. | Insight: Jordan is only averaging 8.6 ppg, 6.5 rpg and 1.2 bpg in his last 11 games after producing 10.8 ppg, 7.7 rpg and 2.2 bpg his first 12. | | |
| Hot | 11/8/2012 10:54:00 AM |
Description: Clippers center DeAndre Jordan scored 20 points on 10-of-12 shooting, grabbed 11 rebounds and blocked four shots Wednesday against the Spurs. | Insight: Jordan is shooting (dunking?) a ridiculous 73.5 percent from the field in five games this season. He's also blocked an average of 2.8 shots per game. | | |
| 3/26/2011 4:02:00 PM |
Description: Jordan returned Friday after missing two games with pneumonia and played 23 minutes off the bench. | Insight: He put up three points, two rebounds, two assists and four blocks. Perhaps most importantly, he cut back into Chris Kaman's minutes. The two figure to split time going forward. (RapidDraft.com) | | |
| 3/12/2011 10:20:00 PM |
Description: DeAndre Jordan is apparenly alternating with nice games with his last line of 10 points, 17 boards, and a block in the win over Washington. Chris Kaman came off the bench with 14 points, two boards, and no blocks in his 22 minutes in the win. | Insight: DeAndre committed no fouls in his 36 minutes. He has value in deep leagues and the Clippers have some serious talent up front, yet they are one of the worst teams in the league in the standings. | | |
| 3/10/2011 12:02:00 PM |
Description: Jordan went for 21 points and nine rebounds in just 21 minutes of action Wednesday against Boston. | Insight: Considering he has only reached 10 points -- and not passed that -- one other time since Feb. 9, this sure looks like a fluke. (RapidDraft.com) | | |
| 3/9/2011 11:38:00 PM |
Description: DeAndre Jordan had one of his better games as a pro with 21 points on 9-of-10 shooting, nine rebounds, and a block in 33 minutes to help the Clippers top the Celtics in Boston. | Insight: Chris Kaman only logged 22 minutes to Jordan's 32. Jordan was justifiably let loose in most standards, so a night like this one might entice those owners to switch back to the former Aggie. Don't expect a night like this one though. | | |
| 2/27/2011 3:05:00 PM |
Description: Despite starting ahead of Chris Kaman Saturday, Jordan played eight fewer minutes overall and managed just four points. | Insight: It looks like Kaman is back, which makes it tough to find a reason to continue owning Jordan -- if you did in the first place. (RapidDraft.com) | | |
| 2/1/2011 12:58:00 AM |
Description: DeAndre Jordan was around the basket on both ends of the court that help him contribute a line of 16 points, seven boards, and five blocks in the win. Blake Griffin wasn't too shabby with 32 points, 11 rebounds, and a steal in 41 minutes. | Insight: If DeAndre could just make his free throws, he'd a an absolute stud in fantasy hoops. Kaman's return in nowhere near and Jordan is a strong add in even the shallowest of leagues. | | |
| 1/6/2011 12:57:00 AM |
Description: DeAndre Jordan had a career game with 14 points, 20 boards, and six blocks in a whopping 41 minutes. | Insight: This is the second time in less than a week where D.J. blocked six shots. Chris Kaman is becoming very expendable and Jordan might actually be able to retain some value. He's been one of our darlings all year and it's nice to see him explode. He should be owned in all leagues until Kaman can prove he will be a part of the team. | | |
| 1/3/2011 5:41:00 AM |
Description: DeAndre Jordan did an outstanding job protecting the rim for the Clippers by tossing six shots to go with six points and 12 boards in the loss to Atlanta. | Insight: He's been a very solid fill-in player for the Clippers, but with Chris Kaman returning at some point in the near future, D.J. doesn't have much value. The Clips could look to trade Kaman though. | | |
| 11/26/2010 8:03:00 AM |
Description: Jordan had nine points and eight rebounds in a win over Sacramento. He was 4-for-5 from the field. | Insight: With Chris Kaman coming back soon, Jordan's fantasy relevance will end. In his last five games, he averaged 7.2 points and 6.6 rebounds. (RapidDraft.com) | | |
| 11/18/2010 11:00:00 PM |
Description: DeAndre Jordan missed all seven of his field goal attempts to finish with no points in 23 minutes. | Insight: He grabbed five boards and blocked a shot to make the night not a total loss. The 0-of-7 in unacceptable and he should be cut loose in all but the deepest of leagues. | | |
| 11/18/2010 10:04:00 PM |
Description: Jordan had five rebounds and one blocked shot in the loss to the Pacers tonight. | Insight: Over his last five games, Jordan is averaging 16 points and five rebounds. (RapidDraft.com) | | |
