Golden State Warriors star Draymond Green called for the end of the Israel-Hamas conflict, but did not mention his 2018 trip paid for by Israel.
After Draymond Green’s first full practice back with the Golden State Warriors, there were plenty of basketball questions for the star to answer. But before answering those, Green went out of his way at the start of the post-practice press conference to passionately address the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas. In a two-minute address to begin his press conference, Green called for an end to the 'killing of innocent people' in this conflict.
Green, who didn’t address his 2018 trip to Israel on Sunday, was criticized for the visit at the time, with a Dave Zirin piece at The Nation comparing this visit to 'Green visiting the Ferguson police department while fires were still smoldering in 2014.
