Jordan Poole shone in his first appearance after video emerged of an incident with his Golden State Warriors teammate Draymond Green.
The 23-year-old point guard lead scoring for the Warriors with 25 points in their 124-121 preseason loss to the Los Angeles Lakers on Sunday. Poole dazzled fans with some skills, in particular late in the third quarter, the guard looped the ball around his body, evading defenders before converting a teardrop, displaying the creativity and elusiveness which has transformed him into one of the best young players in the league.
“But the embarrassment that Jordan has to deal with and that this team has to deal with, this organization has to deal with, but also Jordan’s family. His family saw that video. His mother, his father saw that video. And quite frankly if my mother saw that video, I know how my mother would feel. I know what her reaction would be, and I know what her next step would be. And so for that I apologize to his mother and his father.” Green continued, describing his actions as a failure of leadership.
