Jordan posted six points (2-2 FG, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, one assist and one block in 14 minutes during Friday's 125-113 victory over the Pelicans.
EDGE Analysis
Jordan cobbled together another serviceable performance Friday, grabbing at least six rebounds for the fifth straight game. Although he is not even in the rotation on some nights, Jordan provides the Nuggets with a veteran backup behind Nikola Jokic. His fantasy value is basically non-existent outside of streaming him when Jokic is slated to miss time for one reason or another.

Jordan ended with nine points (2-4 FG, 5-10 FT), 10 rebounds, two assists, two blocks and one steal in 25 minutes during Tuesday's 114-106 win over Chicago.
EDGE Analysis
Nikola Jokic was ejected in the first half, so Jordan saw extended playing time and made the most of it. The 35-year-old backup has been solid when given an opportunity this season, but his production is correlated to Jokic's availability.

Jordan won't start Wednesday's game against the Rockets.
EDGE Analysis
Jordan will rejoin the reserves for Wednesday's tilt since Nikola Jokic (back) is healthy after a one-game absence. Considering Jordan has appeared in merely three games this season, he should handle a limited role for the contest.

Jordan recorded 21 points (8-11 FG, 5-11 FT), 13 rebounds, five assists, one block and two steals in 34 minutes during Monday's 113-104 victory over the Clippers.
EDGE Analysis
Jordan drew the start in place of Nikola Jokic (back), and Clippers fans got a dose of nostalgia as they watched Jordan and Reggie Jackson pick apart their old team. Although it's been six years since Jordan last donned a Clippers uniform, he looked as aggressive as ever. His drive-and-dunks off of Jackson's passes were reminiscent of the old-school days in the Staples Center. Jordan is buried in the depth chart, and Jackson will join him soon, but it was a nice moment for the duo.

Jordan is in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Clippers.
EDGE Analysis
Jordan earns the start over Zeke Nnaji, who hasn't exceeded an 18-minute workload this season. However, both players will factor into Denver's frontcourt rotation with Nikola Jokic (back) and Aaron Gordon (heel) out. Jordan has started eight games dating back to the beginning of last season, averaging 6.9 points and 9.4 rebounds in 26.2 minutes per game.

Jordan is not in the starting lineup for Thursday's game against the Clippers.
EDGE Analysis
The Nuggets decided to start most of their regulars in the final preseason contest, so Jordan is among several players who will head back to the bench here. The veteran big man recorded eight points (4-5 FG, 0-1 FT), nine rebounds, four assists and two steals across 21 minutes during Tuesday's 116-103 loss to the Clippers.

Jordan logged eight points (4-5 FG, 0-1 FT), nine rebounds, four assists and two steals across 21 minutes during Tuesday's 116-103 loss to the Clippers.
EDGE Analysis
Jordan became a star with the Clippers, so there was a small revenge element against his former team in Tuesday's loss. Jordan will compete with Zeke Nnaji and Peyton Watson as the backup to Nikola Jokic, and his veteran presence should be valuable. Even at 35 years old, the 6-foot-11 center has retained his trademark aggressiveness and rebounding ability. Although he's not a draft target, he'll be a solid waiver wire pickup if Jokic suffers an injury at some point during the season.
