Jordan Poole is going through quite the roller coaster as he started his new journey with the Washington Wizards. The former Golden State Warrior was traded to the DC franchise right before the 2023 NBA Draft. Making a new home in the nation’s capital has not been as easy for Poole as many expected it to be. In fact, former NBA Champ Kevin Garnett went from comparing Poole to Harden to saying that he should be out of the NBA.

Despite the poor start, Poole still is the 50th highest-paid player in the league. With a 24-year-old earning so much money and a championship ring to his name, fans are sure to wonder about his dating life. There has been a lot of speculation about Poole’s dating life. Earlier this year, Jordan Poole was rumored to be dating 25-year-old model Kim Cruz.
According to SideAction, the Warriors star and the model were spotted wearing the same unreleased T-shirt starring the 24-year-old star. Here is the T-shirt in question:

The model had also been spotted at a lot of Warriors games, and every time she attended one of them, she turned off the comments on her IG posts.
While the rumors ran hot when Jordan was in San Francisco, they have died down as of late. However, the two still follow each other on Instagram.

Are Jordan Poole and Kim Cruz dating?
There have been a lot of rumors linking Jordan Poole and Kim Cruz. However, there has been no official confirmation about the same from either of the two.
Who has Poole been linked with?
Entering the NBA at 20 years of age, Jordan Poole made a name for himself right in his rookie year. Back when Klay Thompson was dating Laura Harrier, she posted a photo of them together, all dressed up. Zendaya commented on the photo, and Poole replied to her comment, asking her for a double date with Klay and Laura.

Unfortunately, that didn’t pan out for the then-rookie. However, he hasn’t let that stop him from shooting his shots. Then, there was a time JP was called out for shooting his shot with Malika Andrews(sort of).
Poole was also in the news for reportedly spending $500,000 on a date with Ice Spice. He later clarified that the rumor was just a rumor and there is no truth to it.
It seems like Poole recently debunked the ‘baddies’ rumor surrounding him. During the 2022 Warriors Playoff run, there was a joke started by a fan claiming that Poole turns into prime Michael Jordan when there are beautiful women courtside. However, when Rubi Rose was courtside, it had no effect on Poole, who just scored 8 for the night.

It’s safe to say that Poole is moving past some of the things he was known for with the Warriors.
