Draymond Green’s contract extension was one of the major talking points during the NBA Free Agency. There were huge rumors which suggested that the four-time NBA champion was on his way to the Los Angeles Lakers to play alongside LeBron James.

Although it looked like Green would leave the Golden State Warriors, he ultimately decided to sign a 4-year, $100 million contract. Incidentally, his extension came days after the Warriors traded Jordan Poole to the Washington Wizards. Prior to the 2022-23 NBA season, Green had punched Poole, and this invited a lot of criticism for the former Defensive Player of the Year.
