Draymond Green has been quite something this season. Despite being the center of all the drama in the offseason, the man has come back as almost the best version of himself fans have ever seen.

His defense has been more than on-point, his play-making has started to get downright elite again, and of course, as most Warriors fans will have noted already, the man is taking three-point shots too.
And on 1.3 attempts per game, the man is converting on 35%.
That may not seem like much. But, in an offense dominated by the long ball game of Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, Jordan Poole and just about everyone else, this is all he needs to do from deep.
But, his three-point percentage is not what we’re here to talk about.
No, no, no, we’re here to talk about how he has broken Michael Jordan’s heart with all the skill he possesses from beyond the arc.
Let’s dive right into it, shall we?
Draymond Green, after years of playing in the modern NBA, has passed Michael Jordan in career three-pointers made
Michael Jordan wasn’t the type of guy who’d take three-pointers too often. However, when he attempted it, he wasn’t too bad at it, especially for his time, shooting 32.7%, on 1.7 attempts per game.
This brought him back a neat little sum of 581 three-pointers made during his career.
Not too bad at all.
Just not quite good enough to prevent Draymond Green from doing this.

In all seriousness, our heartiest congratulations to Draymond Green for the feat. There have been clear signs of an improvement in his jump shot and shot tendencies. And if the Warriors want to win it all again, they’re going to need all of it.
