Pelicans Sign DeAndre Jordan to One-Year Deal
The New Orleans Pelicans have signed 2023 NBA champion, All-Star, and three-time All-NBA center DeAndre Jordan to a one-year, $3.6 million deal.
This move is expected to provide mentorship for Derik Queen, whom the Pelicans drafted this year. Jordan brings valuable experience, having played 18 seasons in the league.
Free agent center DeAndre Jordan is signing a one-year, $3.6 million deal with the New Orleans Pelicans, Jeff Schwartz of Excel Sports Management tells ESPN.
Last season, Jordan averaged 3.7 points, 5.1 rebounds, and 0.9 assists in 12.3 minutes per game over 56 games. Although he won't be the starting center, he will be a valuable asset off the bench.
Jordan's signing is seen as a savvy move by the Pelicans, addressing their need for a proven center to guide Derik Queen.
