Jordan Poole

Playing alongside a household-name star like Stephen Curry can either help or hinder your development. It hasn’t hindered Jordan Poole, who had to step up in a big way for the Golden State Warriors to cover for the absent Klay Thompson. Although he was playing second fiddle to Curry, he nonetheless performed wonderfully in the team’s backcourt.

Poole impressively knocked down the threes and got to the cup with a presence of mind rarely seen in young, promising players. Surely, this former Michigan Wolverines and Santa Cruz Warriors player will continue to impress. He made the 2021 All-NBA G League Third Team.
