Draymond's 4 AM Tokyo Draft Advice Revealed
18 Jan
Summary
- Draymond Green advised on draft picks from Tokyo at 4 a.m.
- Bob Myers received early morning texts from Green in 2021.
- Warriors drafted Green's suggested players, Kuminga and Moody.
In a surprising revelation from former Warriors president Bob Myers, it has come to light that Draymond Green played an instrumental role in the team's 2021 draft selections. While in Tokyo, Green sent text messages at 4 a.m. to Myers, strongly recommending Jonathan Kuminga and Moses Moody. This early morning advocacy highlights Green's dedication to the team's future, even before the official draft.
Despite Myers' initial uncertainty about Moses Moody, the Warriors ultimately heeded Green's advice, selecting both Kuminga and Moody in the first round of the 2021 NBA draft. This proactive involvement underscores Green's keen eye for talent and his commitment to building a strong roster for the Golden State Warriors.
Adding to the narrative of Green's loyalty, recent reports suggest that despite trade rumors circulating as the deadline approaches, the Warriors are staunchly against trading Draymond Green. This stance, shared with similar sentiments regarding Jimmy Butler, indicates a firm commitment to keeping key players, much like their strategic draft decisions in 2021.
