Washington Wizards guard Jordan Poole made yet another regrettable play for the second game in a row, this time against the Boston Celtics on Monday, October 30, at home inside the Capital One Arena.
The 24-year-old initiated a fastbreak for the Wizards in the first quarter with just over four minutes left. However, as he reached the free-throw line, he unexpectedly pulled back and attempted an ill-advised three-point shot, which Celtics center Kristaps Porzingis swiftly blocked.

The Wizards went on to lose the game, 126-107.
This marks Poole's second consecutive game with a lowlight.
In their previous game against the Memphis Grizzlies on Saturday, October 28, the fifth-year guard attempted to imitate his former Warriors teammate Stephen Curry's renowned celebration of turning around after a three-point shot before the ball goes inside the hoop.
However, Poole hilariously missed his try as the shot bricked on the rim as he turned around.

Fans roast Jordan Poole for poor shot attempt
Several fans were displeased by the former Golden State Warriors guard and 2022 NBA champion for attempting such a comical shot.
I want to know why the coach didn’t sub out Poole immediately after this.

He don’t want to win, he’s just there for the vibes lol
