Poole has signed a staggering $140 million four-year deal with the Golden State Warriors. The team had high hopes from the budding star in the postseason, but that has not been fulfilled in the past few games.

The Stephen Curry-led Golden State Warriors were able to win the seventh game of the series against Sacramento and qualify for the Western Conference Semifinals. Curry once again led by example by scoring a staggering 50 points. He also broke the record for scoring most points in the seventh game, which was previously held by Kevin Durant. Jordan Poole once again disappointed fans as he scored a meager 8 points throughout the seventh game. In the sixth game of the series, he was only able to score seven points.
In a video posted by House of Highlights, Jordan Poole can be seen hugging Steph Curry after the Dubs guard hit a clutch three-pointer. Fans couldn’t overlook his string of poor performances in the postseason after the post gained traction on social media. The 23-year-old starlet has been quite underwhelming in the playoffs. He didn’t stand up to the expectations put on him by the team.
