NBA: Jordan Poole Agrees To $140M Extension With Golden State

A rising talent is Jordan Poole. He is 23 years old, and in what was essentially his debut NBA season, he averaged 18.5 points, four assists, and the highest free-throw % in the league. According to ESPN, guard Jordan Poole and the Golden State Warriors have reached a multiyear agreement. The four-year contract is reportedly worth up to $140 million.

Jordan Poole Signs $140 Million Extension With Golden State

His happened soon after Poole and Draymond Green’s most recent altercation. The veteran struck Poole during last week’s workout. Initial reports claimed that Jordan Poole was acting strangely, but teammates and management soon denied those assertions.
With Poole’s agreement to stay with the Warriors being finalized, the group has secured one of the best young guards in the league.

Jordan Poole established himself as a crucial player on the Warriors’ team last year. Jordan Poole had a regular-season scoring average of 18.5. In 22 games during the playoffs, he averaged 17 points, continuing his impressive streak. They were both season high averages. Last season, he also topped the league in free-throw accuracy with a 92.5% mark.

With the Warriors for his fourth season, Poole has watched his stats get better each time. The shooting guard from Michigan averaged 8.5 points on 33% shooting as a rookie, 12.0 points on 43% shooting in 2020–21, and then upped his average once more to 18.5 points on 45% shooting in the previous season when he assisted the Warriors in winning the NBA championship.

In addition, Jordan Poole made 211 3-pointers last season, which ranked 15th in the NBA and was second on the Warriors behind all-time 3-point shooting champion Stephen Curry.

The extension will become effective in 2023–2024. This season, Poole will earn roughly $4 million.

What Does This Extension Mean For Draymond Green ?

Naturally, the topic now turns to Draymond Green. Additionally, the four-time champion is in a contractual year. Many may be wondering if Green’s time with the Warriors is coming to an end after the Warriors signed Jordan Poole to a contract extension.

Many observers claimed that the two can no longer coexist in light of the occurrence. Even Warriors center Kevon Looney claimed that Green had lost the team’s confidence and needed to regain it. Green must maintain his best conduct in the locker room while still making a significant choice.
Additionally, there have been reports that he may seek to transfer to the LA Lakers.

The Warriors will lose a floor general and a vocal leader if Draymond Green opts out and the franchise does not grant him a contract extension. The Big Three, which consisted of Green, Steph Curry, and Klay Thompson, would also be over. In the previous eight seasons, the trio has won four championships.

Only time will tell how events in Golden State turn out with only a few days till the start of the season.
