Jordan Poole is a future superstar

Through three games, you can make an argument that there hasn’t been a better and most consistent performer in the playoffs in the Western Conference than Jordan Poole. In three games, Poole is averaging 29 points, five assists, and three rebounds per game on 67 percent shooting from the field and 59 percent shooting from 3-point range.

It’s practically unfair that Poole is on a team that consists of Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, and Draymond Green. During the season, Poole was an essential spot-starter and bench player for the Warriors. Now, it seems he’s a bonafide future superstar.

If Poole continues to play at this rate, the rest of the Western  Conference is in huge trouble. Get to know the name, Jordan Poole. He seems like the real deal.
