San Francisco, CA – Saturday evening, the Golden State Warriors played the defending champion Milwaukee Bucks. The Warriors were shorthanded, so they knew they had to bring their A-game to get a win. Jordan Poole set the tone early for the Dubs. After the game, Jrue Holiday had nothing but praise for the third-year guard.

“He’s good, he’s good, he can play, he can go,” Holiday told ClutchPoints. “I feel like the system here, the way that they play gives him space, obviously I think a lot of guys are focused on Klay (Thompson) and Steph (Stephen Curry), but he's one of those guys that people are keying in on now. So he's playing well and he is playing confidently and he looks good.”

Saturday was the first time Poole started alongside Klay Thompson and Stephen Curry. It was a secret that Steve Kerr wouldn't reveal during his pre-game press conference. The savvy move might have been the key to the  Warriors running away with the game.

Poole scored 30 points, 6 rebounds, and 5 assists in the Warriors' win over the bucks. The final score was 122-109 inside the Chase Center. The Warriors were in total control from start to finish, even with Curry only scoring 8 points.

This marks the Dubs’ third straight victory. Coming off losing five games in a row, every victory is huge for Golden State. Their record improves to 46-22, and they are tied with the Memphis Grizzlies for second place in the Western Conference.

Next, the Warriors get the heart and soul of the team back in the lineup. Draymond Green hasn't been on the Warriors’ home floor since January 9th,  but Monday he's back.
