Los Angeles Clippers: 5 best destinations for DeAndre Jordan
2. Milwaukee Bucks
With the way the NBA has changed, teams are opting for length over height, allowing them just as much rim protection with an added ability to cut off passing lanes.
The Milwaukee Bucks, with one of the longest teams in the league, have the potential to become a great defensive team, capable of immense versatility.
With Giannis Antetokounmpo owning arms that stretch 7’3″, Jabari Parker at 7’0″, and Khris Middleton at 6’10”, Milwaukee’s frontcourt seems impenetrable. Combine that with both Eric Bledsoe and Malcolm Brogdon‘s 6’10” reach and the Bucks are a team built with an eye toward the future of the NBA.
Adding DeAndre and his 7’6″ wingspan to the fold would give Milwaukee one of the most feared defenses in the league, capable of trapping every pick-and-roll with the ability to rotate and jump the passing lanes, igniting the one-man fast break that is The Greek Freak.
Jordan’s rim running abilities would also give them a gravitational pull as a roll man, allowing for more outside shots, something current centers Thon Maker and John Henson don’t currently allow. Unfortunately, it would be extremely tricky for Milwaukee to free up the necessary cap space for Jordan, as several big contracts would need to be shipped out.
