Jordan Poole

When Plan A doesn’t go according to plan, the most talented scorers know how to quickly pivot into Plan B. In a battle against both the Sacramento Kings and a winding shot clock, Jordan Poole provides an example. Left with little option after his dribble handoff attempt gets thwarted by tight defense, the dynamic two-guard calls his own number, hoisting a 33-foot bomb to close the quarter. Despite the Washington Wizards’ loss in the high-scoring shootout on December 18, 2023, Poole was a bright spot, logging 28 points and two assists, while also tying his career-high with eight 3-point makes.
