With the awkwardness that will be Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook being teammates again for one night, Green wants to help. During an interview with ESPN at the NBA All-Star Celebrity Game, Green mentioned that he’s not there to mediate but he doesn’t want any awkward moments between the two.

Green just wants to have fun like the rest of the players at the game and enjoy the moment. His opinion is one shared by many as the All-Star Game is a chance for the best players around the league to bond with each other and have a platform to elevate their individual brands.

Of all the All-Star Games in history, this might be the most hyped up one yet. With Durant leaving the Oklahoma City Thunder in free agency, the bad blood between him and Westbrook has been building. His return to Oklahoma City is one that fans will never forget.

Now, he and his former teammate are once again on the same side. Steve Kerr is going to have an interesting task juggling his lineups and how he will play the two. However, many would probably prefer these two just enjoy the weekend and soak in the moment of being honored for their tremendous play over the season.

If Green had it his way, everyone would be getting along on the floor. While they won’t get along once the regular season resumes, everyone can chill back and relax for a weekend. The fierce defensive player is there to help.
