Poole notched nine points (2-6 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 4-4 FT), one rebound and two assists across 29 minutes during Sunday's 140-112 loss to Memphis.
Washington's fortunes depend on productive evenings from Poole, so Sunday's result was a definite disappointment. It's an outlier for the sixth-year pro, as he's dipped below double-digit scoring totals only three times this season. Washington's overall quality of play will naturally make Poole's production more volatile than other guards in the league, but he's demonstrated explosiveness with a trio of 30-point games, including a season-high 42 points.
