Nets’ DeAndre Jordan: Continues efficient scoring
DeAndre Jordan recorded 11 points (5-7 FG, 1-1 FT), six rebounds, one assist and one steal in 20 minutes during Monday’s 98-85 win over the Heat.Jordan is shooting a ridiculous 89.3 percent from the field across the past five games, averaging 10.6 points to go along with 6.8 rebounds, 1.6 blocks and 1.4 assists in 25.8 minutes. The subtraction of Jarrett Allen from the Brooklyn Nets has opened more minutes for Jordan, and the addition of James Harden has created more easy scoring opportunities for the big man. A career-high 64.4 percent of Jordan’s field goals this season are dunks.

Nets’ DeAndre Jordan: Records double-double Monday
DeAndre Jordan posted 12 points (6-6 FG), 12 rebounds, three assists, two blocks and a steal across 38 minutes in Monday’s 125-123 win over the Bucks.Jordan was perfect from the field Monday and posted his first double-digit scoring effort of the season, which translates to this being his first double-double — as well as his joint-best rebounding effort of the campaign. Jordan is not going to score a lot but provides value on defense and rebounding, and his upside should get a boost as long as he remains the Brooklyn Nets’ starting center.

DeAndre Jordan will start Wednesday’s game against the Knicks, Alex Schiffer of The Athletic reports.The 32-year-old didn’t play as a coach’s decision but will rejoin the starting five Wednesday with Jarrett Allen having been traded to Cleveland as part of the blockbuster deal to acquire James Harden. Jordan averaged 4.3 points, 7.1 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 1.4 blocks in 19.0 minutes in his seven starts this season, though he should see increased run with Allen out of the picture.

Nets’ DeAndre Jordan: Limited output once again
DeAndre Jordan scored four points (2-2 FG) and grabbed five rebounds in Monday’s loss against the Wizards.Jordan might not do much in terms of scoring, but he’s missed just three field-goal attempts all year long while starting all seven games for the Brooklyn Nets. He might be a good source for field-goal percentages and defensive stats, but his upside is quite limited even when factoring his outstanding shooting numbers — mainly since he’s reached the 20-minute mark in just one game thus far.

Nets’ DeAndre Jordan: Blocks four shots in OT loss
DeAndre Jordan tallied four points (2-2 FG), nine rebounds, five assists and four blocks across 30 minutes during a 116-111 overtime loss to the Grizzlies on Monday.Jordan hasn’t made much of an impact on the offensive end early in the year — averaging just 3.3 points per game through four contests. But despite averaging just 21.3 minutes per game so far early in the season, the veteran center is posting impactful rebounding (9.8 per game) and block (2.0 per game) numbers. Jordan is going to be splitting time with Jarrett Allen all season long, and his value will remain somewhat capped out as long as Allen is healthy.

Nets’ DeAndre Jordan: Double-double in Sunday’s start
DeAndre Jordan scored 11 points (4-5 FG, 3-4 FT) while adding 15 rebounds, four assists and three blocks in 29 minutes during Sunday’s 110-107 win over the Bulls.Moved into the starting lineup by interim coach Jacque Vaughn, Jordan delivered his 13th double-double of the season and his highest block total in a month. The veteran center had been averaging 24.4 minutes a game since the beginning of February, so his workload only increased slightly in his new role, and it’s not yet clear whether Vaughn intends to keep the younger Jarrett Allen on the bench moving forward. If Jordan does remain in the starting five, however, his fantasy outlook would get a slight bump.

Nets’ DeAndre Jordan: Joining starting five
Interim coach Jacque Vaughn said that DeAndre Jordan will start at center in Sunday’s game against the Bulls, Alex Schiffer of The Athletic reports.In what amounts to his first major decision since replacing Kenny Atkinson on the bench, Vaughn will drop Jarrett Allen from the starting five to make room for Jordan. The choice is a curious one given that Allen, a 2017 first-round pick, is seemingly a bigger part of the team’s long-term plans, but neither player’s fantasy outlook may end up changing drastically by the lineup change. Jordan had already been in a rough timeshare with Allen this season, with the former averaging 21.8 minutes per game to the latter’s 25.9. It’s not clear if Jordan’s move into the starting five will result in a notable uptick in playing time, if any.
