Leads team from second unit Poole chipped in a team-high 25 points (10-19 FG, 5-12 3Pt), one rebound, two assists and two steals over 32 minutes off the bench during Thursday's 135-119 loss to the Rockets.

Impact The fifth-year guard bounced back from a brief shooting slump that had seen him score just 31 points total over the prior three games. Overall, Poole has adjusted well to being on the second unit, and in 12 games since being shifted to the bench he's averaging 20.5 points, 4.3 assists, 3.3 threes, 3.1 boards and 1.1 steals in 29.6 minutes a contest -- numbers right in line with his production for the Warriors in 2022-23.

Why Jordan Poole is okay being the NBA's meme king

Jordan Poole is an NBA champion and a $128 million player. He's also the internet's favorite basketball player to poke fun at.

Why Jordan Poole is okay being the NBA's meme king

Struggles from deep off bench Poole ended Friday's 112-100 victory over the Hornets with 15 points (6-17 FG, 2-10 3Pt, 1-2 FT), five rebounds, seven assists, three blocks and two steals across 34 minutes.

Impact Poole might have ended with a decent stat line due to his contributions in peripheral categories and his seven assists, but his struggles on offense continue even after his move to a bench role. Poole's biggest issue has been the lack of efficiency, as he's shown the ability to get the ball in the basket one way or another. He's played Washington's last nine games off the bench, a span where he's averaging 22.8 points per game while shooting 43.2 percent from the field. Even though that figure is not eye-popping, it's certainly an upgrade compared to the 40 percent of shooting efficiency he delivered in a starting role.

Leads Wizards off bench Wednesday Poole amassed 26 points (9-19 FG, 4-12 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds and five assists in 32 minutes during Wednesday's 119-109 loss to the Magic.

Impact Over his last eight games since being moved to the bench, Poole has averaged 23.8 points per game on 44.1 percent shooting (including 38.2 percent from three), 3.0 rebounds, 4.0 assists and 1.0 steals over 30.0 minutes. It appears his playing time hasn't been hurt since joining the second unit, and he was out on the floor for most of the fourth quarter in Wednesday's loss.

Pours in 32 off bench Poole closed Monday's 127-115 loss to the Jazz with 32 points (11-18 FG, 6-10 3Pt, 4-4 FT), one rebound, two assists, one block and two steals over 29 minutes off the bench.

Impact The fifth-year guard led the Wizards in scoring on the night as he continues to come alive as part of the second unit. Poole has topped 30 points three times in seven games since shifting to the bench -- his three highest-scoring performances of the season -- and is averaging 23.4 points, 3.9 assists, 3.6 threes, 2.9 boards and 1.1 steals over that stretch. Rookie Bilal Coulibaly hasn't made a big impact as a starter in his place, but Poole's surge in production will likely mean he remains in his current role.

Jordan Poole scores season-high 34 points at Lakers

MARCH 1 • YOUTUBE

Jordan Poole, five games into a new role, is starting to get comfortable Jordan Poole scored a season-high 34 points Thursday night as the Wizards lost to the Lakers in overtime.

MARCH 1 • WASHINGTONPOST.COM

Scores season-high 34 points Poole notched 34 points (13-26 FG, 5-12 3Pt, 3-4 FT), three rebounds, seven assists, one block and one steal in 38 minutes during Thursday's 134-131 overtime loss to the Lakers.

Impact Poole has flashed tremendous upside during his tenure with the Wizards, but there's a lot of variance when looking at his totals as a whole. His volatility is one reason why he continues to play with thew second unit, but he's difficult to bench once he gets going. Thursday was a perfect example of what Poole can do when he is dialed in. His dependability is still an issue, as he's failed to score in double-digits 10 times over 57 games
