Washington Wizards head coach Brian Keefe praised Jordan Poole’s defense/efficiency after Wednesday’s 133-120 home win vs. the Atlanta Hawks (24 points/3 rebounds/9 assists/3 steals/6-17 FG/4-9 3-PT/8-8 FT/+14 +/-).
(via Washington Wizards):
“I’ve talked about the defense for Jordan, to me has been the most impressive thing. Him getting in there, digging balls out, steals, being active. The offensive stuff, I know he can do that. Obviously, he’s been efficient. He carried us, kept us afloat in the first half, and that’s what your big (name) guys have to do.
