Richard Jefferson argues Jordan Poole's Wizards stint only helps Draymond Green

The Washington Wizards have removed themselves from the Jordan Poole experiment after two seasons dealing with the highs-and-lows rostering the Michigan product brings to an organization.

Washington landed Poole in a deal with the Golden State Warriors after sending Chris Paul to the Western Conference as part of the fallout from the Bradley Beal blockbuster a couple offseasons ago.

The Wizards were in a place where taking a swing on Poole's potential seemed far more beneficial than keeping an aging Paul in the DMV as a mentor, which now looking back could be reviewed as a questionable decision.
