encountered ridicule and questioning at the beginning of the draft. In the 2019-20 season, Jordan Poole was indeed unable to give people a satisfactory answer.

He was at the forefront of the rookie that year, but he could only score 8.8 points, his shooting percentage was as low as 33.3%, and his three-point shooting percentage was only 27.9%. He was nicknamed the "ice shooter" by people.
