Paul George Reveals True Thoughts on Jordan Poole's Development
USA TODAY Sports

Many weren't expecting it at first, but Jordan Poole has developed into the third splash brother for the Golden State Warriors. One of those who didn't believe at first was Paul George. Even though George didn't believe it at first, he does now.

Paul George revealed his true thoughts about Jordan Poole's development in episode two of Podcast P.

"Golden State, they're scouting is, cuz Kuminga is a dog, he's going to be really good. Jordan Poole is already special. I gotta shout out Jordan Poole, because I didn't see the vision from year one to year two. If you ask me after watching him the first year, if he was going to be good, I would have told you like nah I don't see it. But, I guess you don't have a choice but to learn and be a sponge and raise your game. You get to play with Steph Curry and Klay Thompson. So, when I seen him in year two, I was like, 'woaaaah! I literally was like damn there's three of them now!'"

The development of Jordan Poole has definitely been something to behold. He's gone from averaging 8 points, to 12 points, to 18 points, and now averaging 20 points a game. He's become a legitimate offensive problem in the NBA, and Paul George now recognizes that game.

"He's a star... He's elite."
