Draymond Green wrapped up a rocky 2025-26 season that saw the Golden State Warriors fall in the play-in tournament, with the veteran forward starting all 68 games while averaging 8.4 points, 5.5 rebounds and 5.5 ******* ists.
This offseason, Green has used his podcast to speak freely, and this week he turned his attention to one of the NBA's biggest storylines. However his take has already caught plenty of attention around the league, there is more to why Green feels this way.
Green's comments on his podcast reflect a recent pattern of him weighing in publicly on league matters, from a warning he sent the NBA over Damian Lillard's shooting display to issues touching his own Golden State Warriors locker room. This time, the target was the structure of the salary cap itself, not just the punishment handed down.

"Why is there a salary cap? Why are guys being prevented from making money from team sponsors or league sponsors, or whoever else?" Green said.
