It’s safe to say Bob Myers and the front office wish they’d convened with Jordan Poole’s representatives before the Golden State Warriors embarked on their preseason trip to Japan. Two days before the defending champions tipped off training camp on September 24th, the normally evasive Myers shed real light on the status of Poole’s potential […]

One thing Jordan Poole doesn’t lack is confidence. He’d probably bet on himself in a three-point shootout against Stephen Curry. That’s why the Golden State Warriors youngster hasn’t been bashful in trying to bump heads with the big boys from The Bay. The banter is often playful, for sure. But you just know Stephen Curry […]

Klay Thompson and Stephen Curry put on a show as they teamed up in an exhibition three-point contest during the Golden State Warriors’ Japan tour.

Draymond Green, Jordan Poole and Andrew Wiggins made abundantly clear at Media Day that potential contract stalemates ahead of free agency next summer won’t get in the way of the Golden State Warriors’ quest for another championship. Just because they’re more focused on winning consecutive titles than signing extensions, though, hardly means the topic of […]

Jordan Poole proved what he’s worth during the Golden State Warriors’ championship run, and maintained on Sunday that there’s “no ceiling” to how much better he can get after a breakout campaign in 2021-22. As his team begins official preparations for the 2022-23 season, though, Poole’s focus seems squarely on winning another title—not the uncertainty […]

Continuity is key to the Golden State Warriors’ hopes of repeating as NBA champions in 2022-23. Barring a significant injury to Stephen Curry or one of his teammates trying to sulk his way out of the Bay, don’t expect Golden State to make any major trades this season.

The summer came and went with some of Jordan Poole’s contemporaries getting the type of massive payday he definitely deserves. As the deadline for rookie contract extensions quickly approaches, though, there’s still no indication the Golden State Warriors will lock Poole up long-term before he hits restricted free agency. General manager Bob Myers addressed the […]

The most enduring memory of Jordan Poole’s first playoff run—to opposing fans, at least—is certainly Ja Morant dropping him to the floor en route to a go-ahead floater during a second-round loss to the Memphis Grizzlies.

Jordan Poole had a breakout season in 2021-22, and there’s no denying that he played a key role in the Golden State Warriors championship run. So much so that the Dubs are expected to face a bit of a headache once Poole hits free agency next summer. Poole has done enough to prove that he […]

Would the Golden State Warriors consider offering extensions to each star on the team? Could Joe Lacob pay Klay Thompson, Draymond Green, Andrew Wiggins, and Jordan Poole? Stephen Curry already has his extension in effect. So extending the others could keep Golden State vying for championships for years to to come. However, Lacob isn’t willing […]

Summer isn’t over, but the Golden State Warriors’ offseason might as well be. The defending champions lost Gary Payton II and Otto Porter in free agency, loathe to increase another massive luxury tax bill to bring back aging bench players.

Jordan Poole was undoubtedly one of the biggest risers from the 2021-22 NBA season.

The best […]

Jordan Poole is fresh off of a strong 2021-2022 NBA season. He showcased his potential and demonstrated the ability to thrive in the NBA.

Kevin Durant has virtually taken the entire NBA offseason hostage with his request for a trade from the Brooklyn Nets.

Jordan Poole has been a revelation for the Golden State Warriors. The former late 1st-round draft pick balled out for the Dubs last season.

In fact, the Warriors star […]
