Through the first 28 games of 2024-2025, the Washington Wizards have had just five reasons to smile. Jordan Poole gave them the biggest reason on Dec. 26 with a thrilling game-winner over the Charlotte Hornets.
Poole, who ended with a team-high 25 points in the 113-110 win, was nonchalant about his performance after the game. The sixth-year guard gave a sly response to his impressive stepback three-pointer over Josh Green.
“I practice those every day,” Poole said in his post-game interview.
Poole's three gave the Wizards a 112-110 lead with 8.
