Golden State Warriors star Draymond Green admitted he's "happy" that Klay Thompson found a better situation for himself with the Dallas Mavericks this offseason.

Green addressed Thompson's exit on the Club 520 Podcast and contended it was mutually beneficial. He said at the 34:26 mark that Thompson "relieved this organization of the financial hardships that the organization was starting to face" while landing in what should be a more fulfilling role in Dallas.

"He provided cap relief for this organization on his way out," Green said.
