Knockdown catch and shooter

Jordan Poole is capable of a lot more, but at this point in his college career he has been mostly a spot up shooter on offense. According to Syngery Sports, Poole is shooting 38.9 percent on catch-and-shoot jump shots, ranking in the 72nd percent tile.

Poole knocked down one catch-and-shoot 3 after another in Michigan’s game against Indiana. Poole finished with five 3’s in this game, including one 3-pointer showing off his NBA range.

The freshman’s ceiling is certainly a lot higher than just a catch and shooter, but for a first-year college player you can’t really expect all that much.
