Warriors forward Draymond Green sounded optimistic about the prospects of his ankle...
Draymond Green of the Golden State Warriors looks on prior to Game 4 of the Western Conference Semifinals at Crypto.com Arena on May 8, 2023, in Los Angeles.media day on Monday after the veteran forward suffered an ankle injury that is expected to keep him out for an extended period of time.
Green told reporters that the injury came during a pickup game when he landed on Jonathan Kuminga’s foot, but he maintained an optimistic attitude about it.“I was just playing pickup, was going up for a layup, came down on JK’s foot,” Green said. “But I feel good. I feel like I’m improving fast — I’m a pretty fast healer — so I feel like I’m improving fast, and it’s good. Didn’t quite foresee this coming into the season, but everything happens for a reason.
As far as ankle sprains go, Green said this one is far from the worst one he’s suffered in his career.“I’ve had some bad ones,” the veteran said. “It could have been as bad. I thought it was gonna be, especially initially, but I’ve had some bad ones, and you know, it’s tough, but it’s fine.” Green also noted that he’s going into the 12th season of his career, and missing training camp at this point isn’t nearly as bad as it would be if he were new to the league.
It’s still not ideal for the Warriors to have one of the roster’s cornerstones missing for the first month-plus of the season. Green signed athis offseason, which was a signal from the Dubs that they want him to be part of the team’s future as the organization tries to maximize the chances of a title during Steph Curry’s ongoing prime.
