Champion of the “new media” movement allowing players to take on media roles before the end of their playing careers, Warriors star Green Draymond often podcasts immediately after Golden State games for Draymond’s green showwhich is ideal for fans looking for explanations after tough losses or huge wins.
When Green launches into a conversation with a player during or after games, you can just check your podcast feed for the latest episode of his show and you know he’s going to draw fire, breaking down what happened or s take on this player. For example:
Not only that, but Green already works with Turner as part of TNT’s NBA coverage, appearing on Inside the NBA during the season to break down matchups or discuss what’s going on with the Warriors.
However, it’s not all drama with Green, as the former Michigan State star player also provides excellent analysis of what happens in games, explaining the X’s and Os as well as the strengths and players’ weaknesses in a way that’s easy for fans to understand.
You can already tell that Turner is developing Green to become their next long-time analyst once his playing career is over, if he wants that job, in the mold of some of the players at the top of this list. The bottom line is that Green loves to talk, he’s good at it, and he’ll get paid a lot of money to do it when he hangs up his sneakers.
