Jordan Poole, a frontrunner for NBA’s Most Improved Player, has ascended into greatness. It is going to make the Warriors a tough out in the postseason.
This isn’t meant as a shot against Ja Morant, Darius Garland, Miles Bridges, Dejounte Murray, Anfernee Simons, Tyrese Maxey, Desmond Bane, or any of the other candidates. However, I’ve come away more and more impressed by Poole in each passing game.
Even though Golden State’s record has faltered a bit of late as the Warriors have dealt with various injuries, Poole has massively stepped up. He has scored at least 20 points in 14 consecutive games, only failing to reach that mark once this month.
