DeAndre Jordan: I was under "immense pressure"

Los Angeles Clippers center DeAndre Jordan discloses that he was under "immense pressure" when deciding on his future in the NBA.

DeAndre Jordan has admitted that he was under "immense pressure" when deciding his future with the Los Angeles Clippers.

The 26-year-old verbally agreed to leave the Clippers and join the Dallas Mavericks, but then reneged on the move to re-sign with Doc Rivers's men on a four-year maximum deal.

"As everyone knows, I struggled with it," Jordan told The Players' Tribune. "It was nine or 10 days of intense pressure.

"Every night, I would have a different scenario in my head, of the city and team where I thought I would fit best.

"I had several meetings with teams and even more conversations with my family and friends. I kept thinking about what it really meant to be home, and I would go back and forth."

Jordan averaged 11.5 points per game last season for the Clippers.
