Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that Jordan Poole has – 14.2 rating this season in 2023.
Jordan Poole’s start to the 2023-24 NBA season with the Washington Wizards has been nothing short of a disaster.
Tabbed to be a building block alongside forward Kyle Kuzma, Poole was meant to take the next step in becoming a star player that he was expected to be with the Golden State Warriors. Instead, Poole has been extremely inconsistent and at times, very lackadaisical with the ball, often turning the ball over with alarming regularity or just failing to be engaged on the court at all times.
Hardy has been quite productive for a rookie guard that has been an inconsistent fixture in a team’s rotation. In just 14.2 minutes per game, he’s averaging 8.7 points and 1.7 rebounds and is shooting 43.2 percent from the floor and 39.5 percent from beyond the arc.
“When I get out there, I just try to let the game come to me – play within the offense, take the right shots, make the right plays,” Hardy said.
For example, if a player is plus-10.3, that means his team is outscoring teams by 10.3 points when he plays. On the other hand, if the same player is minus-10.3, opponents are outscoring the player and his team by 10.3 points whenever he is on the court.
“He was terrific,” Warriors coach Steve Kerr said of Hardy’s performance. “We knew he would play quite a bit, especially with Kyrie [Irving] out, but also with [Tim] Hardaway out. I thought Hardy kept them in the game. … It felt like we were right there to pull away several times, but somehow, they kept hanging in there. I thought a lot of it had to do with Hardy and his play.”
