The NBA is certainly full of surprises. On one side, Draymond Green’s relationship with the Golden State Warriors appears to be deteriorating, while on the other, fresh links are being attached between Green and LeBron James. Green’s career and reputation have suffered as a result of his clash with Jordan Poole. Now, Lakers supporters appear to be concerned, since Green appears to be a possible trade option for the Lakers in the future.

After attacking Jordan Poole, Green’s relationship with the other Warriors players arguably went downhill. Green, who has been a part of the Golden State Warriors for almost a decade, did not receive a contract extension this year. Poole, on the other hand, was given a four-year contract worth $140 million. However Green will have the ability to become a free agent after the 2022-23 season.

Smith, Green’s time with the Warriors may be coming to an end, and he will likely wear purple and gold colors in the future.
