It is one of the great attractions of the free agency of 2023. Draymond Green rejected his player option for the 2023-24 season with the idea of having total freedom to decide his future and there have been reports about teams that would be willing to give him a good contract, including the neighboring Sacramento Kings; However, days before the final resolution arrives, it seems that the 33-year-old interior will not change scenery.
According to sources from journalist Marc Stein, the most likely right now is that Green will return to the Warriors, since they would be willing to comply with his contractual wishes. To be exact, San Francisco would be willing to give him the three-year contract he wants, which would match the power forward’s tenure in Golden State to Stephen Curry’s.
The fact that Green wants his contract to go along the lines of Curry’s isn’t new. Jason Dumars’s Bleacher Report He emphasized this circumstance as soon as the 33-year-old player said no to his player option. Next, Mike Dunleavy Jr., general manager of the Californian organization, expressed that having Green back is a priority. It seems that everything is coming together.

Within the negotiation between both parties, and with the duration of the agreement more or less clear, it remains to be seen what salary the Warriors are willing to offer him. The player option de Green was valued at $27.6 million and it doesn’t appear that the player wants to see his payroll reduced in a new deal; What’s more, he recently hinted that he might want a total amount of around $100 million. Here is where there may be more discrepancies.
