Updating a previous item, the Celtics want both DeAndre Jordan and Eric Bledsoe in a potential blockbuster trade involving Kevin Garnett and Doc Rivers.
"They really want [Jordan]," source told Ramona Shelburne of ESPN.com. The Clippers countered by offering Jordan and a No. 1 pick, without Bledsoe involved, but apparently that wasn't rich enough for the Celtics. Jordan didn't make a strong impact in the playoffs, shooting just 45.5 percent from the field (down from his season field goal shooting of 64.3 percent) but L.A.'s young center still commands solid value around the league in trade talks.

DeAndre Jordan - C - Clippers

DeAndre Jordan was invited to USA Basketball's camp in Las Vegas, a league source told Yahoo! Sports' Adrian Wojnarowski.

Coach K and Jerry Colangelo are putting together a who's-who of young, talented NBA players to help fill out the national team roster in the years to come. Jordan will join Cavs guard Kyrie Irving and Kings big man DeMarcus Cousins to name two. Jordan's numbers improved only slightly in his fifth season while he played nearly three less minutes per game.

DeAndre Jordan - C - Clippers

Vinny Del Negro lit into DeAndre Jordan for his play during the first round.

"I don't know if crossroads is the right (word) but there's definitely a level you have to play at right now that is much different," Del Negro said. "He has a much different responsibility now. I haven't seen the consistently that I like." Jordan played 31 minutes in Game 5, his highest total of the series, but managed just six points on seven shots to pair with eight rebounds and two blocks. He hasn't scored over six points or grabbed more than eight rebounds in any game during the playoffs thus far.

DeAndre Jordan blew up for 16 points, 12 rebounds and three blocks in 36 minutes vs. Memphis, showing no signs of the minor knee injury he suffered on Friday.

Tonight's performance was crucial, as it helped to expand the Clippers' narrow lead over Memphis for the No. 4 seed. Even if you ignore Jordan's 39 percent free throw shooting, however, his role doesn't lend itself to reliable value. He's playing just 24 minutes per game, enough to average a career-high 8.7 points on just 5.9 shot attempts per game, with 7.1 rebounds and 1.3 blocks. Those are low-end numbers which are unlikely to budge until his minutes increase.

DeAndre Jordan tweaked his right knee during Friday night's game against the Hornets.

Jordan limped off the court during the third quarter but returned later in the third. Jordan said after the game the knee was sore but said he expects to be in the lineup Saturday night against the Grizzlies. We'll sideline him just to be safe, but he should be available against Memphis tonight.

DeAndre Jordan grabbed 13 boards against the Lakers on Sunday, adding four points and one assist in 29 minutes.

He went toe to toe with the league's leading rebounder and topped Dwight Howard by a total of 13-4. Jordan was dealing with a small hip injury and missed practice on Friday, but it's even more clear now that he was just getting a day off. Owners can use him like they normally would.

DeAndre Jordan (hip) is "fine" and will be ready to play against the Lakers on Sunday, per coach Vinny Del Negro.

He missed practice Friday and it may have just been a day to rest. Jordan punished the Suns pathetic defense with 20 points and 12 boards on Wednesday, but it'll be tougher sledding against Dwight Howard on Sunday.

DeAndre Jordan (hip) missed practice Friday.

The Clippers don't play again until Sunday, so this could just be a rest day. But with the playoffs just two weeks away and the Clippers virtually locked into the No. 4 seed, it wouldn't be a surprise to Jordan rest in a game as well. Jordan has started all 76 games so far this season.

Coach Vinny Del Negro admitted DeAndre Jordan is losing minutes due to his free-throw woes.

Jordan is a mind-numbing 95-of-243 (39.1 percent) from the charity stripe this season. Teams have gone to the hack-a-DeAndre ploy often, limiting Del Negro's ability to keep him on the floor. Jordan is averaging just 24.2 minutes per game this year, down from last year's high-water mark of 27.2.

The Suns had no answer for DeAndre Jordan on Wednesday, as he piled up 20 points on 10-of-15 shooting, with 12 rebounds and one block in under 30 minutes.

It's not a huge surprise considering the Suns ran Luis Scola out as their starting center again. Jordan was scoreless in his last game, and his next two matchups are vs. Dwight Howard and the Lakers, and Nikola Pekovic and the Wolves.

Vinny Del Negro is pleased with DeAndre Jordan's energy level over the last three games.

"He's been active. We need him to do that," Del Negro said. Jordan has played at least 27.5 minutes in three straight after only hitting 27 minutes once in March prior, and it appears his coach is finally willing to play him more than half of the game. Jordan has three straight games of double-digit rebounds, but he's got just four blocks over that span.

DeAndre Jordan hit all six of his field goal attempts on Saturday, finishing a win vs. the Nets with 13 points, 12 rebounds, one steal and three blocks.

Jordan hadn't played 30 minutes in a game since early February. Vinny Del Negro stuck with him tonight and it paid off, as L.A. improved their division-best record to 48-22.

DeAndre Jordan went to the locker room for a bleeding issue.

He's probably getting patched up and should be back. DJ had a bleeding issue in his left nostril on March 2 and this would be the second time this month.

DeAndre Jordan had 13 points, seven rebounds and two blocks in Sunday's blowout, but it was a single alley-oop dunk that has NBA fans buzzing.

Follow the link below if you haven't yet seen Jordan's dunk-of-the-year contender, a devastating one-handed alley-oop which will be the topic of Brandon Knight's therapy sessions for at least a few months.

DeAndre Jordan shot 3-of-6 from the field and 1-of-3 from the line for seven points with six boards and two blocks in 25 minutes during Thursday's 107-92 loss to the Nuggets.

He dropped his free throw shooting to 41.4 percent, but at least he's second in the league in field goal percentage. Jordan is in a timeshare with Lamar Odom (eight points, 10 boards and one steal in 16 minutes) and neither player deserves much consideration in standard leagues.
