Golden State Warriors’ forward Draymond Green is gearing up for his return to the court after serving a suspension for striking Jusuf Nurkic in the head.
Green’s absence has been felt by the team, with a record of 7-6 during his suspension, contributing to the Warriors’ overall season standing of 17-19 and placing them in the 12th spot in the competitive Western Conference.
Speaking to the media ahead of his return, Green didn’t shy away from addressing the urgency he feels to get back on the court.
“It’s urgent from a professional standpoint because I wasn’t hurt, at least my body wasn’t hurt. My mind was hurt, my feelings were hurt. But it wasn’t like some injury costed me off the floor, so it’s very urgent because I’ve cost my team enough,” the four-time NAB champion said.
As the Warriors aim to climb the Western Conference standings, the urgency expressed by Green reflects his commitment to making a positive impact on the court.
