Tyus Jones defends Jordan Poole after yesterday’s rough Wizards game

The Washington Wizards lost 120-99 to the New York Knicks last night. If Deni Avdija was the Wizards’ best performer, Jordan Poole was easily the Wizards’ worst. He scored just 8 points on 2-of-11 shooting and has been in the news, mostly for the wrong reasons.

After the game, guard Tyus Jones spoke after the game regarding Poole and his situation. H/T to Neil Dalal for this segment.
