Jordan Poole Questionable for Wizards’ Game Against Knicks on December 28th with Hip Contusion
Jordan Poole is dealing with a left hip contusion. The Washington Wizards player is uncertain to take the court against the New York Knicks on December 28th. His status is listed as questionable, and this is his first noted injury of the season.
What It Means
If Jordan Poole cannot play, it would be a big loss for the Wizards. He has been averaging 21.3 points per game, along with 5 assists and 2.7 rebounds. His shooting accuracy includes a field goal percentage of 43.2% and a three-point percentage of 40.7%. Poole has been one of the key players in scoring, finishing in the top ranks multiple times this season.
The Wizards might have to rely more on Malcolm Brogdon and Jared Butler if Poole sits out. Brogdon averages 13.6 points per game while playing around 24 minutes per game. This change could impact their performance against the Knicks as they adjust their lineup without their leading point guard.
