Finally, after several weeks of uncertainty, Draymond Green extended among Warriors for four additional years, and 100 million dollars, from the opening of the “free agency”. Something to delight his coach, Steve Kerr, and keep the Californian franchise among the leaders of the Western Conference.
A decision which is not surprising, so much “Dray” is essential and attached to Golden State. In the patrick beverley podcastthe person concerned also returned in detail to this extension, indicating that Rich Paulhis agent, was important…
” He explained to me very clearly how important loyalty was, how important the situation we are in was, and that we should not leave all this just because there is a better pay somewhere else “Admits the one who has spent his entire career with the “Dubs” so far. ” What attracts in the distance does not always look like what we imagine. So the only thing he cared about was my inheritance, in the sense that I was going to get paid, but the inheritance was more important than anything else. »
Rich Paul as privileged adviser
Loyalty is therefore the aspect that tipped the scales in favor of the Warriors, when re-signing Draymond Green. However, he could have afforded a much higher salary in another team…
” There was a certain amount he wanted to reach and I wanted to reach, we talked about it even before [la free agency] does not start “Slips the quadruple NBA champion, still about Rich Paul. ” There are opportunities that would have made me more money, and when I told him about them, he said nothing. While it was way more money! Gender, [10 millions de dollars supplémentaires] per year. But he said nothing, radio silence. »
Aware that his client’s interest was to stay in Golden State, the founder of Klutch Sports would therefore have been responsible for guiding him as well as possible and making him understand it. But, when he met its leaders, Draymond Green also realized that the “Dubs” wanted to continue this fruitful collaboration.
” It looked like for a second that I was going to have to go to other teams, but the Warriors made it very clear to me that I was a priority and that they would do everything possible to keep me, so that I remain a Warrior for life. It was one of the most important things to me and Joe [Lacob, le propriétaire] told me that it was not just a contract, because I would be their partner for the rest of life. Something huge in my eyes “, Considers the strong winger, now linked to Golden State until 2027.
With this new contract, and the transfer of Jordan Poole (Draymond Green warming up with the latter’s father on social networks…), the Warriors have in any case made a clear choice for their future.
