LOS ANGELES -- On a night that Dallas Mavericks center DeAndre Jordan was welcomed back and honored by his former team at Staples Center, Clippers coach Doc Rivers said he hopes to see Jordan's LA jersey retired when all is said and done.
"When you think of [Jordan] more than anybody, you think LA Clipper," Rivers said before the Clippers hosted the Mavs on Thursday night. "I think DJ, in my opinion, will qualify [to have his Clippers jersey retired] when he's done, for sure."
Jordan faced off against the Clippers at Staples Center for the first time since departing for Dallas in free agency last summer.
