Warriors worries about Draymond Green’s decline should be non-existent

After all these years, Draymond Green is still Draymond Green. While the 35 year-old forward and one-time Defensive Player of the Year may have lost a step athletically, he certainly has not lost a step mentally. His defensive genius is still on display nightly for the Warriors and should quell any fears of a decline in 2025-26, even if his scoring has dipped to a new low.

Right now, Green is No. 2 in Defensive EPM according to Dunks & Threes, behind just Alex Caruso and ahead of Victor Wembanyama and Rudy Gobert, two of Green's best friends.
