Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green will be one of the most coveted free agents on the market when July 1st rolls around, but that doesn't mean that he intends to play the market.
Via Tim Kawakami of the San Jose Mercury News:
I asked him specifically: Draymond, are you sure you’ll be part of this team next season?
“I’ll be here,” Green said firmly and distinctly. “I love this group of guys."
Even teams like his home-area Detroit Pistons seem to be writing off their chances at wresting Green away in restricted free agency.
Per Vince Ellis of the Detroit Free Press:
Pistons fans have been yearning for Green to return since a Yahoo! Sports report said that Green had “had significant interest with pursuing an offer sheet with his hometown Detroit Pistons.” But the Free Press has reported that the Pistons’ front office views signing Green as unrealistic because the Warriors will match any offer sheet he signs.
Green has made no bones about his desire to get paid max money, but it's also plausible that he'd sacrifice a little bit of money for comfort and success by The Bay.
