Wizards guard Jordan Poole considers Washington’s recent struggles necessary for the team to eventually take the leap to the next level. After the Wizards’ 121-96 home defeat to the Clippers on Wednesday, their 13th in a row, Poole addressed reporters postgame, per Chase Hughes of Monumental Sports Network (Twitter video link). “It’s just a matter of figuring things out,” Poole said. “Good things take time… You’ve got to go through it. Every organization has to go through tough times in order to figure out what the good times are like, if that makes sense. You’ve got to figure it out, you’re building a foundation, you’re laying pieces. It’s not supposed to be easy.” -via Hoops Rumors / November 29, 2024
