“He was going after a dribble and Jordan Poole grabbed his knee and yanked it,” Jenkins said. “I’m going to be very curious to see what happens after that.”
Asked about the play, Grizzlies’ Jaren Jackson Jr. — a high school teammate of Poole — said the play was “unfortunate.”
Steph Curry compared it to an incident he experienced in a game against Minnesota in 2019, where Josh Okogie made contact with his left ankle while he was mid-air for a 3-pointer. In the last two minute report, the league deemed it “hot stove contact.” “It’s unfortunate that that’s a conversation right now because obviously nobody wants to see anybody get hurt. But there’s nothing malicious about what Jordan did. There’s no comparison to what Dillon did or Draymond, like nothing in that vein. So it’s not a joking matter that Ja is hurt but all the rest is total B.S. in terms of the conversation right now.”
