Is the Jordan Poole shoot-out with DC native proof he’s already recruiting stars?

Jordan Poole was acquired by the Washington Wizards shortly before the trade deadline in exchange for Chris Paul. Since then, many opposing fans, particularly from the Golden State Warriors, have been posting memes about how ‘depressed’ Poole has seemed since the trade, despite plenty of proof of the opposite.

The 24-year-old star has been seen laughing with a few of his new teammates, particularly Kyle Kuzma, and even potential teammate Tristan Vukcevic. He has also done a few interviews where he spoke about how excited he is to play in the Nation’s capital.

He seems to be fully embracing the Wizards organization and the opportunity to be the face of a franchise.
