'We are not alike': Warriors' Draymond Green tells All-Star Game crew not to compare him to Rudy Gobert

Draymond Green, the defensive heart of the Golden State Warriors for a decade, really doesn’t like being compared to a certain three-time NBA Defensive Player of the Year winner. And he showed it again at the NBA All-Star Game on Sunday.

Green was named to his fourth All-Star team this season but sat out the game because of a lower-back injury. He was miced up from the sideline however, and he didn’t hold back during the first half when the TNT announcing crew mentioned him alongside other historically great defensive players, including Utah center and fellow All-Star Rudy Gobert.
