Poole amassed 11 points (4-17 FG, 0-7 3Pt, 3-4 FT), two rebounds, two assists and two steals in 28 minutes during Wednesday's 112-104 loss to the Pistons.

EDGE Analysis

Poole continues to struggle to maintain fantasy value with the last-place Pelicans. Over his last seven appearances, the combo guard has averaged just 11.3 points, 1.7 assists, 1.6 rebounds and 2.4 three-pointers in 20.2 minutes per game, though he's shooting 47.2 percent from deep during this span.

Poole contributed 16 points (4-9 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 4-4 FT), one rebound, two assists and one steal in 20 minutes off the bench during Tuesday's 122-116 loss to Denver.

EDGE Analysis

The 26-year-old guard continues to light it up from long distance. Poole has drained four or more three-pointers in six of his last nine games (two starts), averaging 14.9 points, 3.3 threes, 3.0 assists and 1.2 boards in 24.3 minutes while shooting 43.5 percent from beyond the arc.

Poole ended with 21 points (7-11 FG, 6-8 3Pt, 1-2 FT), two assists and one steal in 23 minutes off the bench during Sunday's 128-118 loss to Orlando.

EDGE Analysis

The 26-year-old guard has been seeing a wildly varying role in the Pelicans' backcourt of late. Poole has started two of the last eight games and played anywhere from 12 to 39 minutes during that stretch, failing to score a point at all in two of those contests while topping 20 points in four others. That volatility makes him a risky DFS option, but Poole is averaging 14.8 points, 3.3 threes, 3.1 assists and 1.3 boards in 24.9 minutes in that time, production which has some value in deeper season-long formats.

Poole registered zero points (0-2 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and one assist across 12 minutes during Friday's 128-107 victory over the Wizards.

EDGE Analysis

Poole delivered another woeful performance, failing to score for the second time in the past three games. On the whole, Poole has been a disaster this season, both in terms of fantasy and reality. In 14 games over the past month, he has averaged 14.3 points, 3.4 assists and 2.3 three-pointers in 25.4 minutes per game, barely making him a top 200 player in standard leagues. At this point, it appears as though a trade is the only way of salvaging his season.

Poole won't start against the Wizards on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

With Trey Murphy (back) returning from a one-game absence, Poole will slide back to the second unit. In 14 appearances off the bench this season, the 26-year-old guard has averaged 15.2 points, 3.2 assists and 1.9 rebounds in 25.4 minutes per contest.

Poole is in the starting lineup for Wednesday's matchup with the Hawks.

EDGE Analysis

Poole is coming off a scoreless, 0-for-4 shooting performance, but he'll have an excellent chance to bounce back Wednesday night with Trey Murphy (back), Herbert Jones (ankle) and Jose Alvarado (oblique) all watching from the sidelines. Poole has been better as a starter this season, posting averages of 17.4 points, 4.6 assists and 2.8 triples per contest.

Poole amassed zero points (0-4 FG, 0-3 3Pt), one rebound, one assist and one block over 18 minutes during Tuesday's 111-103 loss to the Lakers.

EDGE Analysis

Poole will want to forget about this dud quickly, as he finished scoreless for the first time this campaign. He's been in a shooting slump lately, hitting 35.0 percent from the field over his last seven games with 13.7 points, 4.0 assists, 2.1 rebounds and 2.3 three-pointers in 24.1 minutes per contest.

Poole notched eight points (3-11 FG, 2-6 3Pt), eight assists, two blocks, one rebound and one steal across 25 minutes off the bench during Sunday's 125-106 loss to the Heat.

EDGE Analysis

With Trey Murphy back in the lineup following a one-game absence due to back soreness, Poole came off the bench after getting the spot start in Friday's loss to Portland. The 26-year-old guard struggled to find his rhythm from the field, finishing with just eight points after scoring at least 16 in each of his previous three appearances. However, Poole still led the Pelicans in assists, dishing out a game- and season-high eight dimes. Additionally, he set a new season high in blocks as well.

Poole closed with 16 points (5-16 FG, 4-11 3Pt, 2-3 FT), one rebound and six assists over 30 minutes during Friday's 122-109 loss to Portland.

EDGE Analysis

Poole made his fifth start of the regular season Friday and first since Nov. 4 due to the absences of several key starters, including Trey Murphy (back) and Saddiq Bey (hip). Poole wasn't the most efficient from the field, but he led the Pelicans with six assists and finished tied with Karlo Matkovic as the team's third-leading scorer behind Zion Williamson (35 points) and Jeremiah Fears (18 points). Across the 10 games since returning from an 18-game absence due to a left quadriceps strain, Poole has averaged 17.1 points, 3.4 assists, 2.1 rebounds, 2.4 threes and 1.0 steals over 36.4 minutes per game, though he's connected on just 27.6 percent of his three-point attempts over that span.

Poole will start against the Trail Blazers on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

The Pelicans will be without several key contributors Friday, giving Poole the chance to step into the starting five for the first time since Nov. 4. Over nine outings in December, the 26-year-old shooting guard averaged 17.2 points, 3.1 assists, 2.2 rebounds and 1.1 steals in 26.0 minutes per contest.
