The Golden State Warriors are far from being at full strength. With Klay Thompson and Marquese Chriss out for the season, the Warriors run thin when it comes to filling out the bench.
A silver lining to this however is Steph Curry seems to have turned it up a notch on offense, dropping 62 points against the Blazers. He flirted with a triple double tonight as well against the Kings as he notched a 30-8-8 statline in just 3 quarters.
Another valued addition to the Warriors would be former DPOY Draymond Green’s return to the lineup. With only 3 games in, Draymond seems to be quite ecstatic about being active on NBA hardwood once again.
Draymond Green gets made fun of for his antics while directing traffic
Draymond Green may not fill up the stat sheet with triple doubles often, but his presence is felt nonetheless. His facilitating and defensive IQ is off the charts for someone who is listed as a power forward.
He notched 5 assists in the first half alone in the game against the Sacramento Kings. In the third quarter however, he seemed to have been taking his ‘point forward’ role a bit too seriously.
He brought the ball up the court and immediately starts jumping all around the perimeter, directing traffic, to get his teammates in position.
The Sacramento Kings announcer took a light-hearted jab at Green, exclaiming, “He’s never jumped that high in his life!”
Portland TrailBlazers star CJ McCollum commented “Dray crazy,” underneath the Bleacher Report post. Other users on NBA Twitter were lobbying for the refs to call a travelling violation on that play.
