Draymond Green received a negative update regarding his availability for the Golden State Warriors' matchup against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Friday night.
Green has been in the league since 2012 when the Warriors selected him in the second round of that year's NBA draft. He carved a niche for himself as one of the best versatile guards in the game, helping Golden State win four championships throughout his tenure.
Green has continued to play at a solid level for Golden State, primarily on defense. However, as he ages, he will need to maintain his fitness to continue performing for Golden State's benefit. He was initially questionable to play against Minnesota due to injury management. Unfortunately for the team, NBA insider Brett Siegel provided the final update on Green's status for the game.
"Draymond Green is out of tonight's game against the Timberwolves," Siegel wrote.
