DeAndre Jordan
C, 6’11, 265lbs, 28 years old, 9 years of experience
Consistently healthy, consistently productive, and consistently plays within his limitations. Even slightly improved his weaker areas - showed slightly more poise in his post touch, had a career-high assist rate (albeit still low), and shot the second best he ever has from the free throw line. He is a star role player, and a role playing star. Needs to develop further offensively - 15% more on that free throw stroke, a willingness to go to the post and use his hooks, less wild kick-out passes - to compliment his pick-and-roll effectiveness. Also needs help defensively so that he is not having to track both halves of a pick-and-roll at once too often.
Player Plan: One guaranteed year at $22,642,350, then one player option year at $24,119,025. No reason to look for a trade despite expensive overall payroll.

Additionally, Jordan's salary is unguarant eed; waiving him opens up another $380,785 in cap room after being charged another cap hold. That would boost their amount of cap room to $17,974,712. It's something to consider, but it's overkill.
