The Jazz/Clippers game came down to the wire last night, with Los Angeles eventually pulling out a tough victory. DeAndre Jordan had only 3 points, 6 rebounds, and 2 blocks, but he made this big-time defensive play to prevent Al Jefferson from tying up the game. Jordan is always good for some highlight plays, but his game as a whole could definitely use some polishing. Regardless, I’m sure the Clippers are happy that his freakish athleticism came to good use last night, or else they may not have been able to beat the scrappy Jazz. -Mark Evans, Assistant Manager/Editor of Content Follow us on Twitter The post DeAndre Jordan Saves Game With Huge Block On Jefferson appeared first on Pass The Pill.
