The Golden State Warriors and Jordan Poole are finalizing a four-year, $140 million extension. The deal will kick in with the start of the 2023-24 season.
Poole has steadily improved in each of first three NBA seasons. He averaged 8.8 points as a rookie, 12.0 points as a sophomore and broke out with 18.5 points per game last season. Poole has proven capable of starting or being one of the league’s best sixth men off the bench.
The Warriors will have in excess of $150 million in guaranteed salary on next season’s cap sheet after inking Poole’s extension. That’s before re-signing Andrew Wiggins and however Draymond Green handles his player option for 2023-24.
