Draymond Green is a cliché. Or, per Webster, he is “a phrase or expression that has been used so often that it is no longer original or interesting.”
No, that last part of the definition doesn’t exactly suit Green. He’s definitely original, and the most interesting personality on the team.
But Draymond Green, in an abstract sense, is a cliché. By now, you’ve heard his story — and others like his — a million times: the underdog, once doubted and cast aside, now stands on top of the world.
You know he grew up in Saginaw, Michigan, raised by a single mother working two jobs.
