Draymond Green is building on what many consider to be a Hall of Fame career. Green is not a flashy and high-scoring player, however, he is one of the most important pieces in building the championship foundation of the Warriors. Even though he was surrounded by Steph Curry, Kevin Durant, and Klay Thompson, Green was the leader of the team.

The former Defensive Player of the Year is a dangerous player. While he struggles to even score 10 points a game, he averages strong assists and rebounds. Along with that, he is the man that sets up the Warriors’ on the court and defensively. However, his playmaking is sometimes forgotten, but he has broken in to the top five of Golden State Warriors assists history.

Steph Curry became the team’s assists leader earlier this week and now Green is joining him in the top-five. This is the greatest era of this team’s history, and the contributions these men made will be remembered forever. Their jerseys will hang in the rafters one day, but the annals of history will prove why those jerseys were retired.

Draymond Green: Not given his due?

Draymond Green is one of those players that people will debate about being either overrated or underrated. Many people don’t look at him as a crucial part of the Warriors’ success because he wasn’t even the fifth scoring option on the team. However, his leadership on the court is unparalleled.

Green is a basketball savant, and it shows on the court. His passes are not overly spectacular but sometimes have a degree of difficulty that people underestimate. He gets the ball to the right teammate in the right spot. While detractors will argue that he has been passing the ball to some of the greatest scorers in the game, his value is regularly appreciated by Warriors fans.
