NBA Free Agency: 5 Worst contracts offered this offseason

#4 DeAndre Jordan (Brooklyn Nets): 4 years, $40 million

DeAndre Jordan moved to the Brooklyn Nets this offseason

While Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving have been the biggest free agency signings for the Brooklyn Nets, the franchise also signed DeAndre Jordan to a massive 4-year, $40 million deal, with most suggesting that both Kyrie and KD wanted to play with Jordan, thus forcing the Nets' hand.

This might be one of the more absurd deals of the 2019 NBA off-season since Jordan's prime is long gone, as the 30-year-old failed to make any sort of impact at both the Dallas Mavericks and then the New York Knicks, where he was benched in favor of starting center Mitchell Robinson.

He has not been at the same level defensively ever since he was moved by the Clippers and his athleticism, which made him such a force to reckon with, has declined too. With a young, rising star like Jarrett Allen waiting to break out, Jordan might become a hindrance rather than a helping hand.

But do not count Jordan out, a player who has been an elite rim protector his whole career and has averaged more than 10 points and 10 rebounds for the last 7 seasons. Yet, a $10 million per year commitment to a player past his prime might be one of the most puzzling decisions that this franchise has made in the off-season.
