Jordan Poole has been amazing this season. He hasn’t let the team feel Steph Curry’s absence for a long time. Now, he along with Curry and Klay Thompson are forming a very dangerous offensive trio. This trio has already “victimized” the Denver Nuggets. If the 2nd game was the sneak peek, this match was the full-fledged trailer for what is coming.

Poole has improved by leaps and bounds since last year. He was playing in the NBA G-League for two seasons straight and now is part of an elite lineup.
His performance today was no exception. Poole scored 27 points with a shooting split of 69/60/66. He also had three assists and three defensive rebounds. He did all this while nursing an elbow injury. But it is not just his performances that have been making rounds. Recently, an old video of the Warriors star resurfaced.

Poole may not get the Most Improved Player Award, but he has impressed one and all with his progress. He might just be the third Splash Brother. Fans are now expecting another “Poole Party” next game. But more importantly, they are expecting another Warriors Dynasty to win Championships again for them. Poole might just be the key to that lock.
