Golden State Warriors star Draymond Green paid tribute to his friend and former teammate Adreian Payne before Game 4 of the Western Conference semifinals against the Memphis Grizzlies on Monday in San Francisco.
Green wore shoes with the words “Long live 5” and "RIP AP" to honor Payne, who was shot and killed in Florida early Monday morning.
Payne, who was the 15th pick by the Atlanta Hawks in the 2014 NBA Draft, was 31.
The former Spartans played two seasons together at Michigan State. Payne averaged 16.4 points and 7.3 rebounds per game for Michigan State and led the team to the Elite Eight during the 2013-14 season.
