Steve Kerr Admits Trying to Calm Draymond Green Doesn’t Have Much Impact

The Warriors will take the court for Thursday’s Game 3 against the Kings looking to avoid falling into a 3–0 series hole. They’ll do so without Draymond Green following the veteran forward’s one-game suspension for stomping on the chest of Kings center Domantas Sabonis—and on Wednesday, Golden State’s top executive and head coach shared their thoughts on the situation.

Warriors general manager Bob Myers told reporters the day before Game 3 that he emphasized to Green that the attention should remain on the team ahead of the most pivotal game of the season, and acknowledged his history of facing on-court discipline.

“Each time he’s messed up, my hope is he learns from it and becomes better … Without him, we probably don’t have any of the championships,” Myers said, per Connor Letourneau of the San Francisco Chronicle. “But he’s a complicated guy, for sure.”
