Jordan Poole is no longer a member of the Golden State Warriors but that doesn’t mean he can’t remain friends with his old teammates.
Photographer Devin Allen snapped a great shot of Poole on the practice court alongside Steph Curry, Klay Thompson, and Seth Curry.
It was a surprising image because of the rumors we heard about the Warriors during last season.

Just a few months ago, Poole was sent to the Washington Wizards after playing for the Warriors for his first four seasons in the NBA.
This followed a tumultuous season filled with ample drama.
It all started when Poole was punched by his teammate Draymond Green during a practice session last summer.
This led to countless headlines and speculation about chemistry and what the future held for the team.
Poole averaged 20.4 points a game during the regular season and was looking like a strong part of Golden State’s rotation.
However, he hit a rough patch in the playoffs and only put up 10.3 points a game on just 34.1% from the floor.
Between his weak postseason performance and the drama that happened behind the scenes, there were plenty of questions about him.
When Poole was traded to the Wizards, few people were surprised.
One could imagine that Poole’s feelings were hurt after that trade.
Perhaps he would want to cut off ties with people from the Warriors.
But it’s clear that he is still close with at least a few of the team’s biggest stars.
That is not too surprising when you consider that the Warriors are the only team he has ever played for.
Poole went through a lot with them.
It didn’t end on the best of terms, but the friendship between Curry, Thompson, and Poole remains.
