Jordan Poole Uncertain Against Houston
17 hours agoWashington Wizards guard Jordan Poole missed Sunday's loss to the Pelicans with a left hip contusion, and he was listed as questionable for Tuesday's home game against the Rockets. Poole has a team-high 28.8% usage rate in his 28 games this season, averaging 21.8 points, 5.0 assists, 2.7 rebounds, and 1.6 steals in 31.2 minutes per contest. Before being sidelined, Poole had at least 25 points in six straight games, and if he returns, he'll have his typical extremely high ceiling. The Wizards' rotation is very uncertain, though, since Poole is joined by Bilal Coulibaly (illness) and Bub Carrington (ankle) as questionable while Malcolm Brogdon (foot) has already been ruled out. If Poole is out, Carrington would fill in, but if he's out as well, Jared Butler and Kyshawn George would be asked to step up once again.
