Washington Wizards guard Jordan Poole is seen as the team's starting point guard and main ballhandler this season. Poole shared the backcourt with Tyus Jones last term and struggled in his first year in Washington. The Wizards even dropped him to the bench for a stretch in February-March. Poole averaged 17.4 points, 2.7 rebounds, 4.4 assists, and 1.1 steals. The 25-year-old looks primed for a bounce-back campaign in 2024-25. His numbers improved significantly last season after Brian Keefe took over the coaching position, and Poole will now get a full year under Keefe in a role that requires a lot of responsibility.
Washington Wizards guard Jordan Poole (illness) is questionable to play in Sunday's match-up versus the Boston Celtics. The 24-year-old guard missed Friday's contest against the Chicago Bulls because of a non-COVID illness and appears to be in danger of missing the season finale. Poole has been performing at a high level in recent games, including a performance against the Toronto Raptors on April 7, in which he dropped 29 points and dished out 12 assists. If he cannot play, more playing time will likely be given to Jared Butler and Johnny Davis. Fantasy managers will want to check back on Sunday to see if Poole will suit up for the last game of the season.
Washington Wizards guard Jordan Poole (illness) won't be in the lineup on Friday against Chicago. The team has downgraded him from questionable to out. Poole's absence is good news for Jared Butler and Johnny Davis, who should receive a big boost in playing time, as there aren't many backcourt options left for the Wizards. There's also a possibility for the rest of the squad to get up more shots without Poole, who's averaging close to 20 attempts for the month.
