Including the Zion Williamson contract in New Orleans, Austin Brown of @CAA_Basketball has now negotiated over $300M+ in rookie extensions this offseason.

Big money for Jordan Poole, but he’s absolutely worth it. He would have drawn an offer sheet for at least that amount this summer.
There’s going to be more teams with cap space than players to spend it on. That will get some RFAs offer sheets they might not have gotten otherwise. – 11:49 AM

Warriors testing out a bunch of different lineups in this first half. Just went on a burst with a Curry, Klay, Poole, Kuminga, Draymond five. Three Kuminga dunks within a couple minutes. One-hand putback and a couple well-timed slashes set up by Klay/Curry. He’s playing well. – 11:10 PM

Jordan Poole was asked in a pre-recorded rapid fire segment whether he would like more time or more money.
JP paused…. and said more time. – 11:04 PM

More than a little disappointed Kerr did not use Draymond’s foul trouble to do an early Poole-for-Green substitution. – 10:24 PM

Should Jordan Poole get a big rookie extension? 🤔

More on this storyline

The Golden State Warriors decided to fine, not suspend, superstar Draymond Green after video leaked of him punching teammate Jordan Poole. Although a specific amount has not been revealed publicly, it was likely enough for Green to surpass a substantial and unwanted milestone. Prior to his latest infraction, Green had tallied $994,124 in total fines over the course of his NBA career, according to Spotrac. And assuming the Warriors fined him more than $5,876 for the punch, Green has now eclipsed the $1 million mark in total fines. -via Larry Brown Sports / October 15, 2022

Anthony Slater: A suspension was bantered around plenty the day of and in the aftermath when the video came out. There were more people in the organization who hadn’t even actually seen the punch yet. It was discussed. In some people’s opinion in the organization he kind of was (suspended). He missed two games and a week of camp. -via HoopsHype / October 14, 2022
