A great friend of LeBron James, Draymond Green would be delighted to see the superstar join him in Golden State this summer. On the other hand, it would not be at any price… The interior of the Bay has in fact vetoed a specific player in the squad.
This is the rumor that has been circulating for several days: an arrival of LeBron James to the Warriors would take shape more and more. The Dubs also tried their luck before the trade deadline, without success since the Lakers refused outright. Except that the winger is potentially a free agent this summer and even if he returns to the City of Angels, nothing says that he will actually end his career there.
Among those who dream of seeing him land in the Bay, there is obviously Draymond Green. The interior is a very good friend of the King and it was even thought that he might one day join him in Los Angeles. In the end, perhaps the opposite will happen… But as the four-time champion explained on TNT during the All-Star Game, everything should not be turned upside down in the event of a trade for the superstar.

In recent days, the Congolese seems to have established himself as Golden State’s second weapon, just behind Stephen Curry. Long on bad terms with Steve Kerr because of his playing time, Kuminga is now untouchable in the Golden State rotation and the Dancing Bear does not want to see him go while Bron is still approaching retirement. On the fan side, however, we remain skeptical.

Draymond had no problem with Klay leaving
Draymond Green firmly believes in the potential of Jonathan Kuminga, who could succeed him as the Warriors franchise’s No. 1 interior. So he doesn’t want his leaders to sacrifice him to get LeBron James… The problem is that it’s not the quadruple champion who has the last word in this story.
