CAMDEN, N.J. — DeAndre Jordan said he was excited about the prospect of reuniting with James Harden on the Philadelphia 76ers, saying he’s better at setting up easy baskets than anyone in the NBA.

“I mean, for a big, or anybody trying to get easy baskets, he’s the best guy to play with,” Jordan said Monday morning after Philadelphia’s shootaround prior to Monday night’s game against the Chicago Bulls in his first public comments since joining the team last week. “He’s so unselfish when it comes to passing and getting guys open and getting other guys going because he can get himself going at any point in time.”

Harden is one of several reunions for Jordan with the 76ers. The 33-year-old center, now playing for his fourth NBA team, spent several years with 76ers coach Doc Rivers with the LA Clippers — where he also played with forward Tobias Harris — and played last season with Harden on the Brooklyn Nets.
