Wizards' Jordan Poole: Catches fire from downtown
Jordan Poole totaled 26 points (8-19 FG, 8-13 3Pt, 2-4 FT), five rebounds and three assists over 36 minutes during Saturday's 112-101 loss to the Bucks.Although he turned the ball over a game-high seven times, Poole caught fire from three-point land with eight triples and led the Washington Wizards with 26 points Saturday. Over his last nine games, Poole is averaging 21.6 points, 5.4 assists, 3.1 rebounds, 1.2 steals, and 3.8 three-pointers per contest. Giveaways and subpar shooting efficiency could remain a problem for the 25-year-old combo guard while Kyle Kuzma (ribs) remains sidelined, but Poole shouldn't struggle to put up points and treys for fantasy managers as Washington's clear-cut top option on offense going forward.

Wizards' Jordan Poole: Leads team to victory
Jordan Poole provided 27 points (7-15 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 8-10 FT), three rebounds, four assists, two blocks and two steals across 34 minutes during Thursday's 123-114 win over the Hornets.Poole's efficient scoring helped him post a team-high 27 points during Thursday's victory. Through his first 23 appearances this season, the 25-year-old guard is averaging a career-high 20.6 points per contest. Poole's productive scoring is largely due to him shooting 39.8 percent on 8.1 three-point attempts per game.

Wizards' Jordan Poole: Leading scorer in Sunday's loss
Jordan Poole accumulated a team-high 21 points (8-19 FG, 3-11 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, seven assists and two steals in 36 minutes during Sunday's 112-98 loss to the Celtics.The 25-year-old guard continues to struggle with his consistency. Poole has scored 20-plus points in three of eight games since missing a couple of contests in late November due to a sore hip, but he's also scored 11 points or less three times in that span. Over that stretch, Poole's averaging 18.6 points, 5.6 assists, 2.8 threes, 2.5 boards and 1.4 steals, but he's shooting just 38.8 percent from the floor and 31.4 percent from long distance.

Wizards' Jordan Poole: Active hands defensively Friday
Jordan Poole ended Friday's 115-105 loss to Cleveland with 17 points (6-15 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 3-3 FT), five rebounds, six assists, one block and three steals across 36 minutes.Poole took a back seat to teammate Bilal Coulibaly's 27 points as Washington hung with the Cavaliers on Friday, but that didn't prevent him from filling up the box score and making a big impact on the defensive side of the floor, which isn't always his strong suit. Poole's scoring has been erratic lately, but overall, he's averaging 17.7 points, 5.7 assists, 2.6 rebounds, 1.1 steals and 2.6 three-pointers per game across his last nine contests. Volatility could remain a common theme for the 25-year-old combo guard throughout the season with the 3-20 Washington Wizards, but Poole's efficiency could get a bump when Kyle Kuzma (ribs) gets healthy enough to help with the playmaking duties.

Wizards' Jordan Poole: Regresses with nine points
Jordan 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.

Wizards' Jordan Poole: Orchestrates offense in win
Jordan Poole ended Saturday's 122-113 victory over the Nuggets with 39 points (12-26 FG, 9-20 3Pt, 6-7 FT), five rebounds and eight assists across 40 minutes.It was a wonderful performance by Poole, whose 39 points and eight dimes led the team Saturday. While Poole turned the ball over six times and fell just three points shy of his season-high mark that was set during a Nov. 13 loss to the Spurs, he nailed a season-high nine three-pointers. In his last 10 games, Poole is averaging 21.9 points, 6.0 assists, 1.1 steals and 3.3 three-pointers in 30.4 minutes per game while shooting 40.7 percent from deep. Washington's offense should continue to run through Poole at point guard, and the 25-year-old combo guard figures to continue handling added usage until Kyle Kuzma (rib), Alex Sarr (back) and Malcolm Brogdon (hamstring) are healthy for the Washington Wizards.

Wizards' Jordan Poole: Makes impact as facilitator
Jordan Poole chipped in 11 points (4-14 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 1-3 FT), one rebound, eight assists and two steals in 32 minutes during Thursday's 137-101 loss to Dallas.Poole struggled to score Thursday, but he did hand out eight assists while turning the ball over just once to help offset the poor shooting night. Despite the shaky performance, Poole is still averaging a strong 20.0 points, 5.8 assists, 2.2 rebounds, 1.2 steals and 2.7 three-pointers in 29.3 minutes per game over his last 10 contests. The 25-year-old combo guard has been one of the lone bright spots for the 2-18 Washington Wizards in what has been a bounce-back season for him thus far, and he'll face a Nuggets team at home Saturday that's struggled defensively to begin the campaign, as they rank 24th in the league in points allowed per game (116.8).

Wizards' Jordan Poole: Goes for 31 points in loss
Jordan Poole logged 31 points (10-23 FG, 3-10 3Pt, 8-9 FT), four rebounds, seven assists, one block and two steals over 34 minutes during Saturday's 124-114 loss to the Bucks.The Washington Wizards came up short Saturday and fell to 2-16 on the season, but Poole notched an impressive fantasy stat line, aided by his second 30-point effort of the season -- and first since the Nov. 13 loss to the Spurs. Poole also managed to bounce back after notching eight points (1-7 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 5-6 FT) against the Clippers on Nov. 27 following a two-game absence. Despite the team's struggles and Poole's own inconsistencies, the guard should remain the Wizards' go-to player on offense on a regular basis.

Wizards' Jordan Poole: Looks rusty in return
Jordan Poole posted eight points (1-7 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 5-6 FT), three assists and two steals in 25 minutes during Wednesday's 121-96 loss to the Clippers.Making his return from a two-game absence due to a hip injury, Poole matched his season low with eight points and saw his minutes limited with Wednesday's game out of hand by the fourth quarter. Despite Wednesday's dud, Poole is still averaging a strong 20.8 points, 5.5 assists, 2.3 rebounds, 1.2 steals and 3.0 three-pointers per game over his last six outings while shooting 46.2 percent from beyond the arc during this span. The 25-year-old combo guard has mostly thrived in 2024-25 as Washington's point guard following the departure of Tyus Jones this past offseason, so fantasy managers should expect Poole to bounce back as he gets further removed from the hip issue.
