Draymond Green is holding back the points this season. There’s no doubt about that! But, his defense looks pretty much the same as previous seasons.
This season, Draymond is averaging 7.0 points, 7.5 rebounds, and 7.1 assists per game, all down from last season. He’s played in just 51 of the Warriors 66 games.
Is Green just saving himself for when it matters the most? His style and intensity are not compatible with 82 games and then an extended postseason run. So, is he holding back a little bit or is this inconsistent Green what fans will have to get used to for the long run?
