Golden State Warriors guard Jordan Poole has played his way into a very big payday.
Poole is finalizing a four-year, $140 million extension with the Warriors, and the deal is likely to be finalized later Saturday, his agents confirmed to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski.

This is certainly a pretty good deal for a former 28th overall pick who really had to play his way into a regular role for the franchise. Once he did, he proved indispensable. He had a breakout season in 2021-22, averaging 18.5 points per game while shooting over 36 percent from three-point range.
Poole has been in the news lately for his role in a practice altercation with teammate Draymond Green. Obviously, that incident did not impact Poole’s willingness to remain with Golden State long-term.
