Jordan and the Nuggets agreed on a new deal Friday, Chris Haynes of Turner Sports reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jordan started eight of his 39 appearances for the Nuggets last year, averaging 5.1 points and 5.2 rebounds in 15.0 minutes per game. The veteran center figures to garner a similar reserve role behind Nikola Jokic during the 2023-24 campaign.

Jordan isn't starting Game 1 of the Western Conference First Round against Minnesota on Sunday, Alan Horton of the Timberwolves Radio Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jordan started two of the final three regular-season games but will head to the bench for the start of the playoffs. Prior to his late-season starts, he wasn't part of the Nuggets' rotation, so he isn't guaranteed to see much playing time during the postseason.

Jordan will not start Saturday's game against the Jazz.
EDGE Analysis
Jordan drew a spot start Thursday with Nikola Jokic (calf) sidelined but will return to the second unit with Jokic back in action. However, the Nuggets starters figure to play around two quarters, so Jordan could see a few more minutes than usual.

Jordan will start Thursday against the Suns.
EDGE Analysis
Jordan started in the Nuggets' most recent contest against the Suns and in that game he recorded 12 rebounds, five points, three steals and a block. With all of the starters for the Nuggets out, it's likely that Jordan and Thomas Bryant will split the minutes at center Thursday.

Jordan closed Friday's 100-93 loss to the Suns with five points (2-5 FG, 1-3 FT), 12 rebounds, one block and three steals across 21 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Nikola Jokic (calf) missed both halves of Denver's Thursday-Friday back-to-back set. While Thomas Bryant drew the start Thursday, he provided minimal production, so Jordan stepped into the starting unit Friday. The veteran provided solid production with team highs in boards and steals, but as expected, he didn't supply much offensive impact during the seven-point loss.

EDGE Analysis
Nikola Jokic (calf) will miss his second straight contest, but it will be Jordan instead of Thomas Bryant starting this time around. Jordan hasn't played since March 3, so it will be interesting to see how many minutes he's allotted Friday evening.

EDGE Analysis
Across four starts this season, Jordan has put in averages of 6.5 points, 9.5 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 0.5 blocks per game, so he's not much more than a rebounding specialist in the expanded role.
