Draymond Green on Warriors missing on Lauri Markkanen: That could have been trash… we don’t know

The relationship of Green and Kuminga isn’t any different. Their paths and basketball gifts are. Green’s legacy is established. Kuminga hasn’t even scratched the surface, with Green knowing just how far he can go and relishing each new flower that blooms along his journey. “He was like, ‘All your success is my success. The more you succeed, it makes me proud. It makes me proud, it makes me happy.’” Kuminga shared. “There’s not too many people that are going to tell you that. He told me, ‘Anything you do in life – you sign a contract, you buy your parents a house, I want to know because it makes me happy.’ “Hopefully if I become an All-Star, or any success that I could achieve in life, I can always go back to Draymond and say, ‘Thank you. You helped me.’ Helping is not giving someone money. Helping is not buying somebody things. Helping is giving somebody some small knowledge. “Since I’ve been here, he’s been hard on me, giving me knowledge every single day. Checking on me, just small things like that.” -via NBC Sports Bay Area / October 29, 2024
