QUOTES/NOTES/TOPICS:
• Jordan Poole says Draymond was very "professional" with his apology, they plan to handle it themselves that way. “We plan on our handling ourselves that way…That’s all I have to say regarding the matter. We’re here to win championships and keep hanging banners.” (Madeline Kenney, 95.7 The Game, Connor Letourneau)
• On his contract extension: “It’s been quite the journey over the last four years… to be locked in over the next five with my teammates… it’s exciting.” (Madeline Kenney)
• On securing a bag with Andrew Wiggins the same day: “Congrats to Wiggs as well. Being able to lock in the same amount of time is exciting…We're here to stay now.” (95.7 The Game, NBCSBA)
• How would Jordan Poole describe his last two weeks? “Long.” (95.7 The Game)
• Poole was thinking about his championship not the Draymond punch these past two weeks: “The main thing I was focused on is over with.” (95.7 The Game)
• Poole said he texted Andrew Wiggins once they both got their contracts: “If there's anybody that I got really close to when I got here it was Wiggs…We talk all the time.” (95.7 The Game)
• On how he felt while signing his contract extension with Warriors: “I really tried to stop smiling. But I couldn’t. I just couldn’t.” (Monte Poole)
• On signing his extension and having opportunity to lead next era of Warriors: “Being able to say I’m the future is huge, because I get to rally these guys.” (95.7 The Game)
• On securing deal before season: “It’s a really good feeling. I was already focused, laser-focused on basketball…Now I’m even more locked in…There’s another level you can take it, knowing that your family is taken care of, friends taken care of, anything that you needed to do is essentially done other than play basketball.” (95.7 The Game, Kerith Burke)
