LeBron James reacts to Jordan Poole’s smooth bucket vs. Suns

After Jordan Poole’s smooth sequence of handles that resulted in a bucket against the Suns, LeBron James chimed in on Twitter with praise for the Warriors guard.

After a season-high 24-point performance against the Sacramento Kings on Sunday, Jordan Poole continued to heat up on Tuesday against the Phoenix Suns.

Poole quickly answered the bell in the first half against the Suns, scoring 14 points on 6-of-10 shooting from the field with two triples and three assists in 15 minutes off the bench in the first two quarters. 

In the second quarter, Poole showed off his full bag with former teammate Damion Lee guarding him. Poole froze Lee with a sequence of dazzling handles and footwork to get to the bucket for a smooth layup off the glass.
