Green was suspended indefinitely by the league this season due to frequent disorderly and violent behavior.
NBA Golden State Warriors defensive star Draymond Green has been suspended indefinitely by the league this season due to frequent disorderly violence. He must undergo psychological counseling arranged by the team and be approved by the league before he can return to the court;
recently Green was spotted attending the birthday party of his friend, Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James, and Warriors head coach Steve Kerr also revealed that Green has not come to practice since being suspended.
James just celebrated his 39th birthday at the end of last month. He recently held a birthday party in Los Angeles.
It was attended by stars, including rap king Jay-Z, pop queen Beyoncé and his wife, Hollywood actor Don Cheadle, and Lakers star Daytona. Anthony Davis and others were present, and Green, who is a good friend of James in private and works in the same agency, also attended the event.

Although the league suspended Green indefinitely, he was allowed to train with the team. However, Kerr revealed in an interview before the game yesterday (3) that Green has never been to the Warriors training arena to practice with his teammates, but Kerr said He sent messages to communicate with Green :
“We sent messages, we always gave him space, and he also gave us space.”

Green has missed 10 consecutive games since he was suspended last year. The Warriors are currently in poor condition. Although they defeated the Orlando Magic yesterday to interrupt their three-game losing streak, they currently have only 16 wins and 17 losses, temporarily ranking 11th in the Western Conference.
People think that if Green, who has always been the core of the Warriors’ offense and defense, does not return to the team quickly, the Warriors may not even be able to play in the playoffs.
However, well-known ESPN reporter Adrian Wojnarowski pointed out that if Green performs well, he is expected to be in the playoffs as soon as possible. The suspension was lifted in late January.
