DeAndre Jordan had five points and eight rebounds in the first half Wednesday in his first trip to Dallas after spurning the Mavericks and owner Mark Cuban. Jordan had agreed to sign with the Mavericks, only to change his mind and re-sign with the Clippers in July. He was booed heartily ever time he touched the ball and the mean signs held up by fans were very present.

The Clippers took a 54-53 lead into the locker room at the break at American Airlines Center. J.J. Redick led the Clippers with 10 points, but went into the locker room with two minutes left in the half. His injury was knot known as of this writing.

Blake Griffin contributed nine points for the Clippers, as did Jamal Crawford off the bench.

Dirk Nowitzki led the Mavericks with 11 points and Wesley Matthews had nine.
