Traded to New Orleans The Wizards traded Poole, Saddiq Bey and the No. 40 pick in the 2025 NBA Draft to the Pelicans in exchange for CJ McCollum, Kelly Olynyk and a future second-round pick, Shams Chara... Impact After two seasons in Washington, Poole will join his third NBA team. He made 68 regular-season appearances in 2024-25, averaging 20.5 points, 4.5 assists, 3.0 rebounds, 1.3 steals and 3.5 three-pointers in 29.4 minutes. Poole shot 37.8 percent from deep on 9.1 attempts per game, both career-high marks. With the move, the Pelicans roster becomes younger but adds cap space, with Poole set to make $37 million in 2025-26 and is under contract for two more seasons.
