1. Welcome to the Poole Party! Jordan’s first ever playoff run just keeps getting more impressive. During Game 1 this weekend, Jordan became just the fifth Warrior to ever score +30 points off the bench in a playoff game! Guess you can say he’s making a splash 😉
  2. Pure Madness! Before his NBA days, Jordan was actually known for a heroic March Madness moment. In 2018 with his team down two, Jordan hit a game-winning buzzer beater three that sent his Michigan Wolverines to the Sweet 16!
  3. Everyone knows the Dog Whisperer, but Jordan is the Cat Whisperer. At least, according to his mom anyway. As the story goes, when Jordan was younger, he would train his pet cats as if they were dogs, teaching them how to sit and fetch!
  4. Did we mention he loves cats? After taking in a stray back in Michigan, Jordan has actually added to his cat family since moving to The Bay. In 2019, Jordan adopted two brother kitties, Kai and Kota, from a local San Francisco Shelter!
  5. From Wisconsin, with love. Jordan actually has the honor of playing alongside one of his role models, Kevon Looney. Both attending high school in Wisconsin, Jordan says Kevon was always someone he looked up to and has strived to follow in his path!
