Calling it a 'long' couple of weeks, Golden State guard Jordan Poole is ready to chase a repeat championship alongside Draymond Green
SAN FRANCISCO — Calling it a"long" couple of weeks, Golden State guard Jordan Poole is ready to chase a repeat championship alongside Draymond Green after the fourth-year pro took a punch to the face from Green at practice.
The 23-year-old Poole finalized a $140 million, four-year extension with the defending NBA champions on Sunday, giving the guard something to celebrate and a bit of relief with a ring ceremony right around the corner. One of those teammates who will be with Poole for the near future is Andrew Wiggins, who also signed a four-year contract extension beginning for the 2023-24 campaign. Golden State hosts the Lakers on Tuesday night to open the season.
"No, the Draymond incident didn't have any impact on how we moved through these things, these had been on-going discussions," general manager Bob Myers said. Kerr will call on Poole to play better defense with the hopes of using him up to 32 minutes a game off the bench.
