NBA Fans React to Jordan Poole's Scoring Explosion in Wizards-Spurs Game
Poole Pours in 36 Points, Hits 7 Threes
Jordan Poole has been on a tear lately, and he continued his hot streak with a 36-point performance in the Warriors' 127-118 win over the Spurs. Poole hit 7-of-12 from three-point range and also added 5 rebounds and 4 assists.
Poole's performance was especially impressive considering that he was playing against one of the best defensive teams in the league. The Spurs have held opponents to an average of just 108.6 points per game this season, but Poole was able to get his shots off with ease.
Poole's scoring explosion helped the Warriors snap a two-game losing streak and improve their record to 12-10. Poole has now scored 20 or more points in five of his last six games, and he is averaging 22.9 points per game this season.
Poole's Performance Draws Praise from Fans
NBA fans were quick to praise Poole's performance on social media. Many fans noted that Poole's performance was a sign that he is finally starting to live up to his potential.
"Jordan Poole is a future star," one fan tweeted. "He has all the tools to be a great player in this league."
" Poole is finally starting to show what he can do," another fan tweeted. "He is a great shooter and he can also create his own shot. He's going to be a problem for other teams in the future."
Poole's Performance Helps Warriors Snap Losing Streak
Poole's performance was a big reason why the Warriors were able to snap their two-game losing streak. The Warriors had lost to the Nets and the Knicks in their previous two games, but they were able to get back on track against the Spurs.
The Warriors were led by Poole's 36 points, but they also got solid contributions from Stephen Curry (25 points), Klay Thompson (21 points), and Andrew Wiggins (19 points).
The Warriors will look to continue their winning ways when they take on the Lakers on Friday night.
