Draymond Green and Klay Thompson Named to 2018-19 NBA All-Defensive Second Team

Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green and guard Klay Thompson have been named to the 2018-19 NBA All-Defensive Team, the league announced today. Both players earned Second Team honors, marking just the fourth time in franchise history that the Warriors have had multiple All-Defensive selections, and the first since Green (First Team) and Andrew Bogut (Second Team) in 2014-15.

Green has been named to the All-Defensive Team in each of the last five seasons, the first player in franchise history to earn the honor in five-straight campaigns, tying Nate Thurmond for the most All-Defensive selections in Warriors history.
