ANALYSIS: Jordan joined Brooklyn in the same 2019 offseason that brought in Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant. The 33-year-old has averaged 7.9 points and 8.7 rebounds per game across two seasons with the Nets. It is unclear what the terms of a buyout would look like at this time.

Bleacher Report's Jake Fischer adds that should Jordan be bought out, the Lakers are a team to monitor as Jordan looks for his next squad.
