Jordan Poole’s Amusing Mental Mistake vs. Bucks Goes Viral

Jordan Poole’s first season with the Wizards has been nothing short of entertaining so far, as the former Warrior takes on a bigger role for his new team. Poole has already been at the center of some viral moments for a Wizards team that has just two wins to begin the year.

The 24-year-old had another viral moment on Monday, this time when he appeared to misunderstand a specific rule in the game. 

With the Wizards down 10 to the Bucks late in the fourth quarter, Poole wanted to try and prevent the clock from running by not touching the ball as he was bringing it up the court. Instead, though, the game clock ran while the shot clock didn’t start, meaning he inadvertently milked the clock instead of saving time.
