The Brooklyn Nets are trading center DeAndre Jordan, four second-round picks and $5.78 million to the Detroit Pistons for Jahlil Okafor and Sekou Doumbouya, sources told ESPN on Friday.
The Pistons plan to work on a buyout for Jordan, sources said. An All-Star in 2017, Jordan has two years and $20 million left on the four-year, $40 million contract he signed in June 2019.
If Jordan reaches free agency, the Los Angeles Lakers will be a serious contender to sign him, sources said.
The trade allows the Nets to save $47 million in salary and luxury tax.
