Draymond Green authors 'defensive masterpiece' vs. Spurs

SAN ANTONIO -- The ball was rolling off the rim with less than 10 seconds left in a one possession game and it was heading right for the tangled bodies of Draymond Green and Victor Wembanyama.

Green is giving up about 10 inches in this duel. But these sorts of moments are a core reason why the Golden State Warriors continue to stick by him. There was nothing but pure basketball here and the player with better position and experience won.

Green outmaneuvered Wembanyama, who committed an over-the-back foul that ended up sealing a 117-113 victory for the Warriors over the San Antonio Spurs.
