DeAndre Jordan News, Rumors, Updates - Denver Nuggets

Back to bench against Nets Jordan isn't in the starting lineup for Friday's game against Brooklyn.

Impact With Nikola Jokic (illness) back to man the middle, Jordan will revert to his usual role as a reserve for the Nuggets on Friday. The veteran big man is averaging 5.8 rebounds, 4.8 points, 1.2 assists and 0.6 steals in 14.4 minutes while shooting 62.5 percent from the field across his past five outings.

Solid showing in starting role Jordan supplied 12 points (5-6 FG, 2-3 FT), nine rebounds, two assists and two steals across 23 minutes during Wednesday's 126-103 win over the Clippers.

Impact Jordan got the start at center over Dario Saric due to the absence of Nikola Jokic (illness) and thrived, finishing just one rebound shy of a double-double and filling the stat sheet despite logging just 23 minutes. Jordan's fantasy upside will be short-lived, as his minutes will regress heavily once Jokic is ready to return, but he might have some streaming upside as long as he remains in a starting role.

Impactful off bench Jordan closed Wednesday's 139-120 victory over the Hawks with eight points (4-4 FG), seven rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal in 15 minutes.

Impact Jordan recorded his fourth game of the season Wednesday with at least one steal and one block. The veteran big man continues to be Denver's primary back center to Nikola Jokic. Over Jordan's last 10 outings, he is averaging 3.8 points, 4.7 rebounds and 1.1 assists in 11.6 minutes on 75.0 percent shooting from the field.

Dusted off in victory Jordan posted four points (2-4 FG), two rebounds and one steal over eight minutes during Tuesday's 122-110 victory over Memphis.

Impact Jordan was dusted off once again, playing minutes as the backup center after Nikola Jokic was once again ruled out due to personal reasons. Primarily serving as a veteran leader in the locker room, there is no reason to think Jordan's role will extend beyond spot-minutes if and when the Nuggets are shorthanded.

Impact Jordan returned to the hardwood after not playing in Denver's previous two preseason games.
