Draymond Green: Thompson’s Warriors exit might bring back joy of basketball

“The highs and the lows of last year was very hard on Klay. As a brother to see somebody go through that, it was hard to watch,” Green said.

Golden State Warriors’ Klay Thompson #11 and Draymond Green #23 leave the court after the Sacramento King’s 118-94 NBA play-in tournament win at the Golden One Center in Sacramento in April. Thompson is leaving the Golden State Warriors for Dallas. Draymond Green desperately wants Klay Thompson to rediscover his joy of basketball, even if that means shedding a “tear or two” over losing him as a Warriors teammate and fellow cog of their four-championship dynasty.

Green said Thompson called him last week to say he was leaving the franchise he joined in 2011 – a year before Green arrived, and two years after Steph Curry came aboard. “If you ever care about someone, and one of the reasons when he called me, I didn’t even want to attempt talking him out of leaving.”

“I do know the joy that basketball brings him. It brought sadness, it brought unhappiness last year for him.”
