Report: Nets bring back LaMarcus Aldridge, reach deal to trade DeAndre Jordan

DeAndre Jordan's time as a Brooklyn Net is done.

LaMarcus Aldridge's is starting over.

Per ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski, the Nets are dealing Jordan, cash and four second-round draft picks to the Detroit Pistons in a salary dump that will send a package including Jahlil Okafor to Brooklyn and save the Nets $47 million in salary and luxury tax. The Pistons are expected to buy out the remaining two years and $20 million on Jordan's contract. Per Spotrac, the Nets had the second-highest luxury tax bill in the NBA behind the Golden State Warriors.
