Steve Kerr on next steps for Jordan Poole’s game after extension. “He’s earned every penny, but I reminded him that last year in the playoffs he played 17 or 18 minutes a game. I wanna play him 30, 32 minutes, but that can only happen if he continues his progression [on D].”

Jordan Poole’s new contract has $17 million in incentives. That includes $1 mil per season for MVP and DPOY. So it’s four years, $123 million guaranteed and isn’t likely to stretch much further for a Warriors team counting every dollar.

More on this storyline
This is on a per-season basis, in place for each of the four years. Poole will make an extra $250,000 if he plays at least 65 regular-season games and the Warriors reach the first round of the playoffs. Poole will make an extra $250,000 if he plays at least 65 regular-season games and the Warriors reach the second round of the playoffs. Poole will make an extra $250,000 if he plays at least 65 regular-season games and the Warriors reach the conference finals. Poole will make an extra $250,000 if he plays at least 65 regular-season games and the Warriors reach the NBA Finals. Poole will make an extra $250,000 if he plays at least 65 regular-season games and the Warriors win at least 52 regular-season games. The NBA has deemed all five of those as likely incentives, meaning they will initially be counted against the salary cap in Poole’s projected number but won’t count against the actual tax bill unless he meets the required incentive. -via The Athletic / October 16, 2022
Poole is guaranteed at least $123 million over the course of the deal. It can stretch its way to $140 million, but the odds of Poole obtaining every dollar of that extra $17 million are near impossible, given the incentive structure in place. -via The Athletic / October 16, 2022
The other four incentives are considered unlikely and don’t count against the initial salary-cap number. Here they are on a per-season basis, also in place for each of the four years. Poole will make an extra $1 million if he wins MVP. Poole will make an extra $1 million if he wins Defensive Player of the Year. Poole will make an extra $500,000 if he makes any of the three All-NBA teams. Poole will make an extra $500,000 if he makes any of the three All-Defensive teams. -via The Athletic / October 16, 2022
