Golden State Warriors star Draymond Green made his return from an 11-game absence Monday night against the Minnesota Timberwolves, marking the end of an extended rehab process—one that wasn't very fun, according to the three-time All-Star.
"That [expletive] was boring," Green told Yahoo Sports' Chris Haynes after his first game since Nov. 15. "Man, I couldn't wait to get cleared. That was a tough period, but it worked."
Green hasn't had to deal with many extended injury absences in his career. He averaged about 78 regular-season games per season through his first six years in the NBA, along with about 17 postseason games per year.
