Barely back and already precious, Draymond Green does not leave a league superstar indifferent. Moreover, it is pushing hard internally to set up a trade with the Dubs barker …
Draymond Green isn’t typically the type of player to ignite transfer times. The three-time NBA champion is not a player who turns 20 points per game, he is not the flashiest star in the league. Yet his impact in a team is more than valuable
Ask for example Stephen Curry or Klay Thompson what was the role of number 23 in the success of the Warriors. They will tell you that Green is the soul of Golden State and the first defensive bulwark of the San Francisco franchise. Not to mention his passing game and his game intelligence, which allows the Splash Bros to shine, and a warrior attitude. In short, the perfect Swiss Army Knife.
So inevitably, a profile like his, it can take a step forward! Ain’t it mister Damian Lillard ? And yes, the Blazers star is not mistaken, well aware of his team’s defensive shortcomings that prevent him from making it to the Conference Finals.
The leader has been campaigning for several seasons with his management to bring Dray to Oregon. What’s more, men are friends, as Sam Amick taught us in his podcast The Athletic NBA Show. The latter develops:
I’ll tell you one thing: if Draymond comes back and things don’t go well, we could consider a scenario where he could be put on the market for a trade. You could consider it given how the franchise is doing. And I know a team, who oh my god would salivate if that was the case, but I won’t mention them …
That wink, it was for the Blazers. In the meantime, all this remains on the order of speculation. Because Draymond has just extended in the Bay for 4 years and 99.7 million dollars, and he looks in good shape and still invested in the Bob Myers project.
Draymond Green a la cote auprès Damian Lillard, who would see himself playing with the double defender of the year. But obviously, the interest is not reciprocal towards Dame DOLLA …
