Jordan Poole at 22 years old shot 50.8% from the field, 39.1% from three and 91.5% from the line in his first crack at the playoffs. He had a true shooting percentage of 65.4%
That’s not normal. – 1:52 PM

Jordan Poole will NOT make $31M this season. It’s an extension, goes into effect NEXT season. His salary this season ($2.16M) is not breaking GSW’s bank.
Seems some clarification is needed – 1:42 PM

Jordan Poole is the 7th player to get a rookie-scale extension this offseason and the 6th to get more than $100 million. Keldon Johnson’s 4-years, $74 million is the smallest. Kevin Porter Jr is the only Rocket eligible, and it’s hard to think he’d take less. Deadline is Monday – 1:26 PM

No Tyler Herro issue with Jordan Poole get larger total extension, “It’s amazing. You know, he’s from Milwaukee, as well. I’m super happy for him. Guys get paid in the league and I’m happy two guys from Wisconsin or from Milwaukee can get a pretty good sized bag.” – 12:47 PM

Jordan Poole recorded 10 30-point games last season after having 1 in his first 2 seasons.
Poole is the first Warriors player at age 22 or younger with 10 30-point games in a season since Monta Ellis in 2007-08. – 12:04 PM

I predicted 4/$100M for Jordan Poole on @spotrac, figuring GSW was going to try to keep his number down due to their ever-increasing tax bill.
Poole got more $40M more (unless some is bonuses, which might be the case) because SGs are getting PAID!

Poole and Herro are comparable players — definitely not a $10M gap between — but Poole has a ring and the good will after how he handled the punch. It’s all about leverage. – 12:00 PM

Big money for Jordan Poole, but he’s absolutely worth it. He would have drawn an offer sheet for at least that amount this summer.
There’s going to be more teams with cap space than players to spend it on. That will get some RFAs offer sheets they might not have gotten otherwise. – 11:49 AM

Warriors testing out a bunch of different lineups in this first half. Just went on a burst with a Curry, Klay, Poole, Kuminga, Draymond five. Three Kuminga dunks within a couple minutes. One-hand putback and a couple well-timed slashes set up by Klay/Curry. He’s playing well. – 11:10 PM

More on this storyline
The Golden State Warriors decided to fine, not suspend, superstar Draymond Green after video leaked of him punching teammate Jordan Poole. Although a specific amount has not been revealed publicly, it was likely enough for Green to surpass a substantial and unwanted milestone. Prior to his latest infraction, Green had tallied $994,124 in total fines over the course of his NBA career, according to Spotrac. And assuming the Warriors fined him more than $5,876 for the punch, Green has now eclipsed the $1 million mark in total fines. -via Larry Brown Sports / October 15, 2022

Anthony Slater: A suspension was bantered around plenty the day of and in the aftermath when the video came out. There were more people in the organization who hadn’t even actually seen the punch yet. It was discussed. In some people’s opinion in the organization he kind of was (suspended). He missed two games and a week of camp. -via HoopsHype / October 14, 2022
