Earlier in the offseason, Green said that he deserves a max contract, and teased that he could go play with LeBron James if his demands are not met. The 2016-17 Defensive Player of the Year has a player option for the 2023-24 season and would ideally want to sign a contract at the end of next season.
Green’s request has been met with mixed reactions. However, Steph Curry believes they are a package deal and will hope to see the big man stay with the team.
Myers said the Warriors might not meet up with everyone’s demands because of the salary cap situation:
After highlighting several scenarios regarding players and pointing out that it is always a negotiation, he continued:
The Warriors have already lost a few key role players this offseason: Gary Payton II and Juan Toscano-Anderson. They are also unsure if Andre Iguodala will return to the fold as the 18-year veteran hasn’t made a decision yet.
Chris Broussard believes the Warriors should not offer Draymond Green a contract until the end of the 2022-23 season
Green’s statement stirred up the NBA community. Many believe he was worth it a few years ago, but do not think he is now as a 32-year-old.
Chris Broussard urged the Warriors to hold on until the All-Star forward has only one year left on his contract. He believes that an extension should only be brought up if Green helps the Warriors win another championship.
After explaining that Green is not defined by his numbers, he continued:
The Warriors are currently the favorites to win the 2023 title. They will start their season on Oct. 18 with an opening game against the LA Lakers.
