Owners, management and players of the Los Angeles Clippers met with DeAndre Jordan in Houston on Wednesday and believe they're on the cusp of having him back out of his verbal agreement with the Dallas Mavericks.

Jordan will still meet with Mark Cuban before the NBA's moratorium is lifted.

The Mavericks and Jordan had agreed upon a four-year, $80 million deal on July 3rd.

Doc Rivers converged on Houston with owner Steve Ballmer and a group of players that included Blake Griffin, Chris Paul, Paul Pierce and J.J. Redick to meet with Jordan on Wednesday without the presence of his agents.
