Draymond makes physical predictions for first matchup against Klay originally appeared on NBC Sports Bay Area
Warriors star Draymond Green and former teammate Klay Thompson will be friends for life, even after the the sniper left Golden State for the Dallas Mavericks.
But things might not be as friendly on the court in the 2024-25 NBA season.
“I’m going through his chest,” Green told the “Sloane Knows Podcast” at Warriors Media Day on Monday, before saying “of course” he would send trash talk to Thompson.
“He’s my brother, but he’s not with us. He’s not with us, he’s with the police.”
Green has never been one to hold anything back on the court, and it will be no different when he faces his ex-teammate of 12 seasons for the first time on Nov. 12, when the Mavericks visit Chase Center.
It will be an interesting evening for Thompson and the Warriors after Splash Brother signed a three-year, $50 million contract with the Mavericks in NBA free agency, leaving the only team he’s known for a fresh start in Dallas.
But despite their friendship, Thompson can rest assured that Green and the rest of Golden State won’t take him lightly now that they’re Western Conference foes.
