After take off, Draymond finally receives apology from critic

PHOENIX –- SiriusXM NBA Radio host and Suns color analyst Eddie Johnson explained Wednesday why he felt compelled to issue an on-air apology to Warriors forward Draymond Green last month.

Why did Johnson, who spent 18 seasons in the NBA, feel a satellite radio apology was in order? He concluded he made a mistake more than a year ago when he suggested Denver forward Kenneth Faried was comparable to Green.

“Yes, a while ago, and this was before Draymond took off, I said Draymond is like Kenneth Faried and Kenneth Faried is like Draymond,” Johnson explained after a 112-104 Warriors victory over the Suns.
