Washington Wizards guard Jordan Poole is best known among local fans as the player whom Bradley Beal was indirectly traded for. To the NBA at large however, he may be best known as the young Golden State Warriors player who got sucker punched a year ago in training camp by veteran forward Draymond Green.
In an article by Logan Murdock of The Ringer yesterday, new details emerged about what the Warriors did in their attempts to mitigate the situation.
In the years before the punch, Poole considered Green a mentor and often like a brother.
