Jordan Poole DVOA, Advanced Stats, & Fantasy Rankings

Washington Wizards guard Jordan Poole (illness) will play against the Charlotte Hornets on Monday. An illness gave Poole a late questionable tag, but he has been cleared to play and will start the contest alongside Bilal Coulibaly, Kyshawn George, Kyle Kuzma, and Jonas Valanciunas. Poole has saved some of his best performances of the season for the Hornets, averaging 26.0 points, 4.5 rebounds, 3.5 assists, 2.0 blocks, and 1.5 steals against them.

Washington Wizards guard Jordan Poole missed Sunday's loss to the Pelicans with a left hip contusion, and he was listed as questionable for Tuesday's home game against the Rockets. Poole has a team-high 28.8% usage rate in his 28 games this season, averaging 21.8 points, 5.0 assists, 2.7 rebounds, and 1.6 steals in 31.2 minutes per contest. Before being sidelined, Poole had at least 25 points in six straight games, and if he returns, he'll have his typical extremely high ceiling. The Wizards' rotation is very uncertain, though, since Poole is joined by Bilal Coulibaly (illness) and Bub Carrington (ankle) as questionable while Malcolm Brogdon (foot) has already been ruled out. If Poole is out, Carrington would fill in, but if he's out as well, Jared Butler and Kyshawn George would be asked to step up once again.

Washington Wizards point guard Jordan Poole (hip) will not be available in the second game of the Wizards' home-and-home set with the Pelicans. Poole returned on Wednesday from a two-game absence and played the last two games for Washington, scoring 30 points in a win over the Bulls and 26 in the loss on Friday to New Orleans. Bilal Coulibaly (illness) will also miss a second straight game, and without those tow starters, Malcolm Brogdon and Bub Carrington will likely carry most of the workload in the backcourt with Jared Butler also possibly in the mix.
