Poole makes Spurs’ Langford stumble with slick move originally appeared on NBC Sports Bayarea
Jordan Poole might have gone scoreless in the first half, but he still made the highlight reel.
The Warriors’ guard faked Spurs guard Romeo Langford out of his shoes behind the 3-point line before driving to the hoop toward the end of the second quarter in Saturday’s game vs. the San Antonio Spurs at AT&T Center.
When Langford tried to recover, he couldn’t help but stumble over his feet as Poole dished a slick dime to Draymond Green for the easy layup.
Poole has been making defenders look silly over and over again during his recent hot streak. He scored 20 or more points in 17 consecutive games before Thursday, when his streak was snapped but he still dropped 19 points and a career-high 11 assists in a 128-112 win over the Los Angeles Lakers.
Poole was cold from the field in the first half Saturday, missing all seven of his field goals. But he still dished out seven assists and was a plus-five in 17 minutes as the Warriors held a 54-44 lead at the break.
