Draymond Green declined his $27.7 million player option for the 2026-27 season with the Golden State Warriors, but it might just be the first step of their grand plan.
Green enters free agency and might agree on a cheaper annual contract for more years of security.
Or, he might be helping the Warriors open up cap ***** e to put their pursuit of LeBron James and Anthony Davis in overdrive.
Shams Charania has reported that Green’s decision to decline the contract option is directly tied to Golden State’s attempts at putting together a big four this summer.
“This move gives the Warriors flexibility to pursue LeBron James in free agency and Anthony Davis via trade to form a Big 4.”
