The Golden State Warriors confirmed Monday that Draymond Green has a left ankle sprain and will be reevaluated in two weeks.
With the 2023-24 NBA regular season less than a month away, the four-time All-Star told Andscape's Marc J. Spears he had an ankle injury that was expected to sideline him for four to six weeks.
"I dodged a bullet and learned that today by the way it's (positively) reacting," he said. "Even with an MRI you don't see the trend of it immediately. The swelling is down."
The Warriors signed Green to a four-year, $100 million extension in the offseason, a deal that symbolized a much larger commitment by the organization.
