The Philadelphia 76ers would have everything ready to sign DeAndre Jordan this Thursday, according to an ESPN report.
The NBA Eastern Conference team will wait until the center is completely free to give him a contract for the veterans’ minimum wage.
The 76ers need to add a piece to help them in the interior game for the rest of the current season.
Barring an unlikely waiver claim before the 5 PM ET deadline today, center DeAndre Jordan is expected to sign with the Philadelphia 76ers, sources tell ESPN. Lakers waived Jordan on Tuesday and Sixers have an open roster spot and desire to add another backup center.
