On Friday night, the Washington Wizards will play the Chicago Bulls at the United Center.
For the game, they could be without their best player, as Jordan Poole is on the injury report.
Poole has missed each of the previous three games, so this would be his fourth straight out of action (if he doesn’t play).
Via Underdog NBA: “Jordan Poole (hip) listed questionable for Friday.”
