After Draymond Green served a 12-game suspension for his erratic behavior on the court this season, fans have eagerly anticipated his return. Green was expected to miss 11–13 games, and this would corroborate that timeline.

He disclosed in a jam-packed episode, among other things, that following what transpired, LeBron James contacted him out of concern. He recently discussed his free time on his program, “Draymond Green Show.” In addition to expressing gratitude to his teammates for their unwavering support, the 33-year-old specifically thanks LeBron James for his encouragement.

They have been close friends for a long time, even though their hostility was much greater in the 2010s. James has a great deal of respect for Green, so the Warriors forward would have found it endearing that he reached out. In addition, Green praised fellow superstar Chris Paul, but his main gratitude went out to Stephen Curry for supporting him during a difficult period.
