During a recent episode of Kevin Garnett’s “KG Certified,” the former NBA star made an eye-opening comparison between Jordan Poole and James Harden, while also dropping a couple of bold scoring predictions for the Wizards guard in ‘23-‘24.
Garnett stated that following the trade that sent Poole from the Warriors to Washington, the 24-year-old could be in line for a top-five scoring season this year. Additionally, Garnett said he’d be surprised if Poole didn’t have at least two 60-point games.
Exiting his sixth-man role in Golden State, Garnett compared Poole to Harden when he left the Thunder and joined the Rockets back in 2012.
