DeAndre Jordan launches perfect full-court pass to J.J. Redick (Video)

DeAndre Jordan showed off the arm and accuracy here on this pass down the court Monday.
Well, it looks like Monday night we learned about a new talent that Los Angeles Clippers center DeAndre Jordan has. Apparently, he might have a future as a freakish NFL quarterback.
Okay, well, not really, but this was a pretty insane play.
The Clippers are on the road Monday night taking on the Philadelphia 76ers and at one point in this one, Jordan was in charge of the inbounds pass. He took the ball but instead of just hitting an easy outlet near him, he took a shot deep — literally.
Apparently, the 76ers failed to account for J.J. Redick, who was wide open down the other end of the court to take the pass.
First off, how could no one have an eye on Redick there? He was about as wide open as someone could get on a basketball court, which is kinda embarrassing.
Secondly … well done, DeAndre! Look you can bash the guy all you want for his free throw shooting, but there’s no way you can knock this play. Jordan hit the wide open Redick in stride, which isn’t really the easiest thing in the world to pull off.
