Player that could make-or-break Warriors: Draymond Green

Last but not least is Draymond Green. While Curry could’ve been here as well, everyone knows what he’s capable of. The floor for Green feels much steeper despite him being among the best defenders in the NBA.

Green is shooting a career-high 52% from the field, but he’s averaging just 7.4 points per game. His impact comes all across the board, also averaging 7.3 rebounds and 7.0 assists per game.

While those are great and the standard that Green has set for himself, he’s also averaging 3 turnovers per game and shooting under 29% from the three-point line. Green can be a liability at times if he’s looking to force the ball into spaces.

He’s also not quite the best floor spacer which can hurt what Thompson and Curry can do offensively as well.

Nonetheless, the Warriors are better with Green on the court, but they need him at his best in order to have a fighting shot at an NBA Championship.
