The Golden State Warriors extended their winning streak to three games by posting a dominant victory against the Charlotte Hornets on Friday. It was a much-needed win for Golden State, considering they had lost to the Hornets just a week ago. Draymond Green came up big with a career-night and propelled his team towards the finish line. 

“A revenge game would be a bit of a stretch,” Green said after the win. “I would say it’s just me coming out and making it right. Trying to do whatever I can to help this team get a win. Can’t just forget about what happened last week, so I wouldn’t call it a revenge game.”

Draymond Green took immense responsibility in guiding the Warriors to victory in the recent game against Charlotte. It was Green who got himself ejected in the final seconds when these two teams played last week, where the Hornets soared to a victory. 

A humble Draymond Green shared the praise with his Golden State Warriors teammates

Draymond Green was the star of the night for the Warriors as he grabbed a triple-double including a career-high 19 assists to seal the win for his team. However, the 30-year-old’s humility didn’t allow him to take all the praise for himself. 

“It means my teammates are playing well, and it means we’re getting better. Kelly Oubre’s been fantastic cutting off the ball, [Andrew Wiggins], obviously, I can always find Steph somewhere. [James Wiseman] coming and putting that pressure on the rim. So just me and my teammates are playing well,” a jubilated Green mentioned after the game.
