Remembering Jordan Poole’s top-10 performances with the Warriors

While his time in the Bay Area will likely be overshadowed by his preseason incident with Draymond Green, Jordan Poole’s stint with the Golden State Warriors featured a run to a championship and an impressive climb from the G League to a focal point in Steve Kerr’s rotation.

Poole was selected in the first round of the 2019 NBA draft out of Michigan by Bob Myers and the Warriors. Poole struggled as a rookie and early as a sophomore, leading to a trip to the G League. However, after a stop in Santa Clara, Poole blossomed.

The former Wolverine turned into a dangerous scorer alongside Steph Curry and Klay Thompson in Golden State’s backcourt, contributing heavily during the Warriors’ run to a championship in 2022.

During the 2023 offseason, Poole was traded to the Washington Wizards in a package that sent veteran point guard Chris Paul to Golden State. During his four-year stint in the Bay Area, Poole averaged 15.8 points on 42.1% shooting from the field to go along with 3.4 assists and 2.6 rebounds per game.

On Friday, Poole will make his return to San Francisco’s Chase Center when the Warriors host the Wizards. Before Poole suits up against his former team, here’s a look at some of his top performances with the Warriors from the regular season.
