Could DeAndre Jordan and Tyson Chandler swap teams?

Published May. 28, 2015 2:45 p.m. ET

The Dallas Mavericks and Los Angeles Clippers both have unrestricted free agent centers in Tyson Chandler and DeAndre Jordan. Could the two teams work out a sign-and-trade swap of the two defensive big men?

Here's Tim MacMahon of ESPN Dallas:  

Perhaps the Mavs can make Chandler a promise: They’ll eventually sign him to a market-value deal, whether it’s with the intention to keep him in Dallas or send him to a contender. That contender would be the Los Angeles Clippers.

Of course, the Clippers would prefer to keep DeAndre Jordan, the third-team All-NBA big man who ranks right up there with perennial All-Star power forward LaMarcus Aldridge as the Mavs’ top targets in free agency. However, Jordan intends to consider all of his options and has privately made it clear that he’s highly intrigued by the possibility of coming to Dallas as a featured attraction for the Mavs.  

A sign-and-trade swap of the centers, which has been mentioned in Mavs front-office offseason brainstorming sessions, would make a lot of sense for all of the involved parties.
