Draymond Green speaks out about James Wiseman’s inexperience
Draymond Green’s return to the Warriors’ roster has certainly helped in several aspects as they were visibly struggling in their first few games of the season.
Meanwhile, Wiseman has already shown glimpses of his extraordinary talent, but he needs time to fit into a team that won three championships in the last decade.
Draymond Green addressed the shortcoming in Wiseman’s game during his recent media availability. The 3x All-Star has been mentoring the #2 draft pick, and he spoke out about the improvements Wiseman requires.

Steph Curry is doing everything he humanely can to put the Warriors into winning ways. The two-time MVP is leading the scoring charts with 30 PPG, while Wiseman is the top rebounder for the Warriors.
However, Draymond Green is just a few games into his season debut, and will soon pick things up with Curry in a few games’ time. These two have their leadership duties sorted for the season and it is vital that they stay fit round the clock.
