Jordan Poole wasn’t having it when a fan messaged him on social media to trash his play on the court. The Golden State guard bit back with a string of vicious DMs.

The Twitter troll blasted JP for missing a late free throw then turning the ball over in a 124-123 Warriors loss to the Jazz on Wednesday night. The ending to the game apparently blew a parlay he’d placed at the sportsbooks.

Fans, don’t do this. Players don’t care about your gambling addictions or your lost wagers. They’re not going to pay you back for your losses (unless it’s JJ Watt), and it’s honestly just a sad look when you attack someone online for missing a shot while you’re home sitting on your couch.

If you get some sort of satisfaction out of DMing an athlete in hopes of a reply, I guess that’s your prerogative. This fan apparently said enough to get under Jordan Poole’s skin, striking a detailed response from the NBAer.

JP actually researched the troll online before hitting him with a few vicious blows.

Jordan Poole found the guy’s athletic bio (he appears to be a DIII football player), posting screenshots of his lack of production on the field. He then replied to the troll with the following message.

LMAO my boy, you have no stats. You need to worry about getting playing time on the field. And you wear No. 41 LMAO. You don’t even get to pick your jersey… Scram.

Brutal.

Fans quickly commented on the exchange, posting replies on the video.

One person said, “You wear No. 41 gotta be one of the best lines,” while another wrote, “Bro told him to scram.”

This fan posted, “Bro really took the time to research then violate him.”

I guess this guy got his 15 minutes of social media fame. Hopefully it was worth the thrashing from Jordan Poole.
