I am pretty tired of watching Poole play on the Wizards. We should be tanking while giving shots to our young players with potential. Trading Poole away would be serving are best interests.

Are there any teams that Poole would fit well on or any teams that would likely trade for him?

You don't have young players with potential. Not yet. Emergent talent will come later when you start actually getting top 5 picks, likely for consecutive years.

This is year 0 of the rebuild, the year(s) most teams would like to forget. Take on bad contracts and expirings for draft picks. Tank to the bottom. Flip the producing pieces for more picks. This can take a year (Spurs) or far longer (Kings).

Then comes the actual rebuild. See the current Pistons. A young core of high draft picks and a player to build around, Cade in this case.
