Frustrated Jordan Poole open to Bay Area return after 51-point loss to Warriors

New Orleans Pelicans guard Jordan Poole admitted he would consider returning to the Golden State Warriors following a 138-87 blowout loss at Chase Center. Poole, who won an NBA championship with Golden State in 2022, is currently playing out the final year of his four-year contract extension. Following the defeat, both Draymond Green and Stephen Curry addressed the possibility of reuniting with their former teammate.

The Warriors secured their eighth consecutive victory with the 51-point win, led by 25 points each from Stephen Curry and Brandin Podziemski, alongside 23 points from Yaxel Lendeborg. Poole finished with a minus-47 rating in the contest as the undermanned Pelicans struggled throughout Monday night's game in San Francisco.
