Warriors’ Priority: Draymond Green Contract Extension and Potential Threat from Sacramento Kings

2023-06-24 13:43:00

Priority of the Warriors this summer, the extension of Draymond Green is still not a heard case. If the time is not to panic, some franchises obviously want to invite themselves to the negotiating table to test the waters. Among them, the Sacramento Kings of Mike Brown, giga bro of Draymond, and their salary flexibility.

As of this writing, the Golden State Warriors are still the big favorites to (re-)sign Draymond in the Free Agency. It’s not just us who say it since the great Woj himself thinks it. However, when a veteran of D-Green’s caliber hits the market, there’s always a pack of wolves ready to pounce on the prey if the mother releases her cub. Here, the mother is Golden State and she has a weakness: her cap space. Indeed with the enormous contracts of Steph Curry and Klay Thompson, it’s not easy to let go of another contract at more than 30 potatoes as Green hopes.

Right now, the most likely scenario is that Draymond Green will extend to the Warriors on a long-term contract.

Among the hungry pack, one team recently stood out: Sacramento. The Kings have several cards in their deck. Indeed, they could offer Draymond Green the kichta he asks for, and allow him to find Mike Brown, with whom the relationship seems fusional since the passage of the latter with the Warriors. The two have an “extraordinarily close” connection according to Brian Windhorst, and a meeting in Sacramento would be a godsend for the Kings. The insider is convinced that Sac-Town is a player not to be underestimated in the race for Raymond this summer, San Francisco would do well to watch his back.

“Mike Brown is extraordinarily close to Draymond Green… The Kings can now go hunting for Draymond Green, if they wish… With this cap space, they could blow Golden State out of the water.”

This season, the men in purple have shown they have the talent to do great things. So, an All-Star capable of doing all the dirty work and more, with a lot of experience, that’s exactly what De’Aaron Fox and Domantas Sabonis need to take a step forward. In addition, such an arrival would be a nice wink of fate after the epic Kings – Warriors of the 2023 Playoffs. A battle in 7 rounds which saw the men of the Bay emerge victorious. Recover one of the leaders of the opposing army to succeed in overthrowing it, it has all the good idea.

For weeks, all signs have been pointing towards an extension of the Warriors’ historic 4 and 5 position. The recent transfer of Jordan Poole to Washington is a confirmation of this. and provides more flexibility for Mike Dunleavy Jr. to ensure he keeps General Green on the team. The latter wants to stay, but be careful not to be stingy about the number of zeros on the contract.
