Jordan Poole Fantasy Stats

New Orleans Pelicans guard Jordan Poole (ankle) is available for Friday's game against the Suns after clearing left ankle soreness. Poole missed Tuesday's loss but had been functioning as a bench contributor prior to the absence. Over his last five games, he averaged 16.6 points, 1.6 rebounds, 3.2 assists, and 1.2 steals in 27.3 minutes, reflecting a stable second-unit role. If he resumes that usage, Jose Alvarado and Jordan Hawkins would likely see reduced guard minutes and touches. Even in a reserve role, Poole offers situational fantasy value through scoring and free-throw percentage, though field-goal efficiency continues to cap his upside.

New Orleans Pelicans guard Jordan Poole (ankle) could miss another game Friday night when his team hosts the Phoenix Suns. Poole also missed Tuesday's blowout loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers with the ankle issue. Following an extended absence in November and early December, Poole is now a bench player in the Pelicans' rotation. He's still getting plenty of shots up (double digits in every game this season) with mixed efficiency. He averaged 16.6 points and 3.2 assists in about 27 minutes in his last five games off the bench.

New Orleans Pelicans guard Jordan Poole (ankle) and forward Herbert Jones (ankle) will be missing from the lineup on Tuesday against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Both players are dealing with ankle injuries. Bryce McGowens will take Jones' spot in the starting lineup. As a starter, McGowens has been quite productive this season, averaging 13.0 points, 3.4 rebounds, and 2.8 assists in five games.

New Orleans Pelicans guard Jordan Poole (quadriceps) has received the green light to play on Thursday night against the Portland Trail Blazers. The team has upgraded Poole's status from questionable to available. The savvy scorer has been out since early November, making only seven appearances this season. Due to his long layoff, Poole may only see limited action on Thursday. However, once he is back in shape, Poole could be set for a huge stretch, with Zion Williamson (adductor) on the shelf. Before straining his left quadriceps, Poole posted 17.3 points and 3.4 assists in 30.3 minutes per game.

New Orleans Pelicans guard Jordan Poole (quad) is questionable for Thursday's matchup with the Portland Trail Blazers. Poole has missed 18 consecutive contests due to a quad strain and hasn't been labeled questionable since the injury occurred, dating back to November 4. If the 26-year-old is still unable to return on Thursday, Jeremiah Fears and Jose Alvarado will continue to carry heavy workloads, helping out Trey Murphy III and the Pelicans' backcourt.

New Orleans Pelicans guard Jordan Poole (quad) will miss his 18th consecutive game on Monday while dealing with a quad strain. His timetable is still unclear, so there's no telling how much time he'll continue to miss. While he's sidelined, Jeremiah Fears and Bryce McGowens have been anchoring the backcourt with Trey Murphy III mixed in as well. Fears has been delivering good value and has now started in 22 of his 24 games played. In those starts with added minutes, he's averaged 15.9 points, 3.2 assists, and 3.5 rebounds per game while shooting 42.7% from the floor with a usage of 26.1%.

New Orleans Pelicans guard Jordan Poole (quadriceps) has been ruled out with a left quadriceps strain, according to the team. Poole will be re-evaluated in the next 7-10 days. The 26-year-old has appeared in seven games for the Pelicans, starting four. Poole is averaging 17.3 points, 1.7 rebounds, and 3.4 assists per game as the team's second option behind also injured Zion Williamson (hamstring). With Poole sidelined, expect to see an increased role for rookie Jeremiah Fears as he continues to carve out a role with the team.

According to ESPN's Shams Charania, the Washington Wizards are trading guard Jordan Poole to the New Orleans Pelicans in exchange for guard CJ McCollum and forward/center Kelly Olynyk. The Pelicans will also receive forward Saddiq Bey (knee). Poole is coming off his best season in the league, averaging 20.5 points, 4.5 assists, and 1.3 steals while shooting 37.8% from behind the three-point line. The 26-year-old will get a fresh start in New Orleans after spending time in Golden State before his stint in Washington. With that said, he may have a tough time staying as productive, especially if forwards Zion Williamson and Trey Murphy III (shoulder) are healthy. Still, Poole should remain a viable fantasy option as it relates to his prowess as a scorer. Outside of that, he isn't very consistent in other statistical areas.

Washington Wizards guard Jordan Poole (elbow) is unavailable for Friday's matchup with the Chicago Bulls. Friday will mark the second game in a row the 25-year-old has missed due to a right elbow contusion. His last chance to suit up before the regular season concludes is Sunday against the Miami Heat. AJ Johnson will likely take on a heavier workload while Poole is on the shelf. Johnson was in the starting lineup on Wednesday against the Sixers and registered seven points, four rebounds and three assists across 36 minutes.

Washington Wizards guard Jordan Poole (elbow) is unavailable for Wednesday's matchup with the Philadelphia 76ers due to a right elbow contusion. The Wizards are staying on the cautious end, keeping Poole out of tonight's action as they are on the back end of back-to-back games. The 25-year-old finished with 19 points, one rebound and three assists across 19 minutes in a 104-98 loss to the Pacers on Tuesday. Marcus Smart and Bub Carrington will likely absorb most of the available minutes in the backcourt this evening.
