Eligible for an XXL contract extension with the Warriors, Jordan Poole has just broken the bank. The Warriors have actually decided to offer him a mega extension a few days before the deadline: 140 million dollars over 4 years!
It’s official, the Jordan Poole case is settled. While the deadline for contract extensions is set for Monday, October 17, the day before the NBA resumes, the back and the Golden State franchise have therefore agreed on a very big extension according to Adrian Wojnarowski of ‘ESPN. 140 million over four seasons, that gives us 35 million in annual salary if our learned calculations are correct. By way of comparison, that’s 10 million more greenbacks than Heat guard Tyler Herro (130/4) over the entire contract. We recently wondered on Twitter whether Poole deserved as much or more than Tyler, you have the answer.
This is proof that the Warriors believe enormously in his potential. Jordan Poole reached the expected milestone last season and thus helped Golden State win another NBA title. He is now seen not only as a very important member of the Dubs’ present, but also of the future of the Bay franchise. And the recent incident with Draymond Green has only solidified his place at the defending champion. Author of a big pre-season despite the shock that followed Draymond’s potato, Poole proved that he had his head on his shoulders and was praised by Steve Kerr for his maturity in this hyper-sensitive situation.
Jordan Poole saw his progress being rewarded with a very big contract. Leader of the Warriors’ young guard behind group veterans Steph Curry, Klay Thompson and Draymond, the 23-year-old back will now have to assume, but there is no doubt regarding his ability to do so.
