The Bucks have selected 23-year old center Jerome Jordan with the 44th overall pick of the NBA Draft. Jordan is 7’0″, 253 pounds so he’s a legit pivot man. Jordan played in 35 games (all starts) at Tulsa last season and he averaged 15.4 points, 9.1 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 2.3 blocked shots per game. He played in 133 games (119 starts) in college and he averaged 11.3 points, 7.4 rebounds, 0.8 assists and 2.5 blocked shots per game. The Bucks continued to add muscle and size with the pick of Jordan.

UPDATE: (6/25/2010) – The Bucks will trade Jerome Jordan to the Knicks on July 8th. It is not known right now what they will get back for him.
