The Los Angeles Clippers face an important offseason this summer, and the future of the franchise may rest in DeAndre Jordan's hands.

Jordan will be an unrestricted free agent this offseason, where he'll be free to sign with any team he chooses. The Clippers do have an advantage in retaining Jordan, however, as they can offer him $109 million over five years as opposed to the $81 million over four years every other team can.

Will that be enough to keep Jordan in Los Angeles? And will the Clippers be willing to fork over that much money with Blake Griffin and Chris Paul already on max contracts?

Here's what Doc Rivers told ESPN.com's Arash Markazi:
