Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green is sending an apology to a former teammate, Jordan Poole. The two players seem to have beef.
The middle portion of the Western Conference standings is a forgiving place. The struggling Suns were blown out by the Cleveland Cavaliers on Monday, leaving them tied with the Warriors at 21-21. The Minnesota Timberwolves have fallen to 22-21, and the Warriors already own the tiebreaker over them.
Draymond Green had a brief but meaningful response to Washington Wizards star Jordan Poole's Golden State Warriors comment.
Draymond Green left the Golden State Warriors ' game last night vs. the Washington Wizards with calf tightness, and with the exact timetable for his return uncertain, Steve Kerr is likely turning to one of his young players to fill in for Green.
Poole obviously has a lot of love for the Warriors and his time with the team—he was part of the 2022 NBA championship, for instance. However, his time with Golden State is often overshadowed by one incident with Draymond Green.
Jordan Poole said he loves “most of” the Warriors, and Draymond Green understood why his former teammate made that clarification.
Draymond Green's calf injury adds to Warriors' struggles. Awaiting MRI results, his return date is uncertain ahead of important games.
Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green will be sidelined for at least one week due to a mild calf strain, the team announced Monday. Green will be re-evaluated in a week to see how the calf is healing.
