Lakers reportedly ‘eyeing’ DeAndre Jordan for final roster spot

It’s been exactly two weeks since the Los Angeles Lakers opened up a spot on their roster, and they still haven’t signed anyone.

The Lakers reportedly expressed interest in all of the high-profile names on the buyout market like Wayne Ellington, Markieff Morris and Enes Kanter, but all of them opted to sign with different teams. Despite this, Los Angeles is hopeful they can still snag a big name free agent before the playoff-eligibility waiver deadline on March 1.

One name they’re keeping an eye on? DeAndre Jordan, according to Eric Pincus of Bleacher Report:

A better fit would be New York Knicks center DeAndre Jordan, who the Lakers are eyeing before the March 1 playoff-eligibility waiver deadline.
