NBA champion Andrew Wiggins endorses young star Jordan Poole and hopes he makes it to his first All-Star game soon

The Golden State Warriors are back! After winning their fourth championship in eight seasons, the Warriors have shown us that the dynasty is not over.

With the golden trio of Stephen Curry, Draymond Green and Klay Thompson there, mixed in with the young talent, our future looks pretty secure.

Jordan Poole is one of the brightest young stars on the team. Selected 28th overall in the 2019 NBA Draft, Poole was a steal and a blessing in disguise for the Dubs. He has shown enormous potential and continues to improve every day.

The 2022 Playoffs were his first postseason experience, and JP did not disappoint. He averaged 17.0 points, 3.8 assists and 2.8 rebounds in the playoffs and was a key reason behind the Dubs’ success.

The young star is in the final year of his rookie contract and an extension is expected soon. Many expect him to show up and play this season to secure as much money as he can.

Andrew Wiggins feels Jordan Poole could become an All-Star soon

In the last year and a half, Jordan Poole has shown us what he is capable of. He is a perfect backup point guard for Stephen Curry and, as we saw, he can also play two point guard when needed.

Poole can score when needed, make plays for his teammates and make decisive buckets.

While speaking to a reporter in Japan, Andrew Wiggins was asked which Warriors player he hopes will make his first All-Star appearance. Wigs didn’t think twice and instantly named JP.

Poole has been working, and everyone in the organization can attest to the same thing.

The Warriors are in Japan for two preseason games against the Washington Wizards. It’s good to see the defending champions go on tour internationally and still get the amount of love they got.

We’ll have to see if JP can light up Saitama Super Arena the same way he lit up Chase Center.
