[Marc Stein] Wizards likely to move on from Jordan Poole by trade deadline or in the off-season as team officials don’t view Poole as “cornerstone material”

    Looks like we won the trade, you hate to see it because we want former players to thrive. Joran is down bad in Washington…

    edit:

    >[DC Sports Buzz] Jordan Poole through 12 games: 15.5 PPG on 14.7 FGA 39.2 FG% 27.8 3PT% on 6.6 3PA 3.7 AST 3.2 TO. 90 ORtg 120 DRtg -0.7 WS (worst in the NBA) -34.1 on-off differential. The stats match the eye test. Jordan Poole has been the worst player in the NBA this season.

    oof

    They wouldn’t net a great return right now by the way he’s playing either. Just makes more sense for them to tank and make moves in the off-season when teams shake things up more.

    This could be the best thing for him. Put your head down and go work. Work on defense and be humble work your way back to a starter

  4. Well he’s certainly not the only guy (who has worn a warriors ring) playing terribly right now.

    JP has a ton of talent but needs to work on his on-court decision making. He needs a vet to come and put their arm around his shoulder and school him on some things. The guy really can be great, all reports indicate that he’s a hard worker.

    I’m rooting for him wherever he goes.

    But the Wizards are trash and need a new coaching staff.

    The Warriors absolutely need someone like Poole (but not Poole). They’ve always lacked someone who can get their own buckets besides Steph. It’s been basically Leandro, Shaun (and obviously KD). The closest thing has been Kuminga this year at times but it’s clearly not consistent enough to count on yet.
