Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green is back in the fold, and his return couldn't have come at a better time.
Green was a full participant in practice Tuesday for the first time since being reinstated from his suspension that forced him to miss 12 games. Upon his return, Warriors teammates greeted him at practice with a round of applause led by rookie Brandin Podziemski.
"It's funny. Coach [Steve Kerr] said, 'Welcome back,’ and [Podziemski] started clapping and everybody started clapping and I'm like, 'I'm not sure I deserve a round of applause,'" Green said, chuckling a bit. "But I'll take it. I'm half-joking, but you don't just get grace and I'll take the time and get back when I can."
