The Golden State Warriors were all over the news this week after the Jordan Poole trade.
They acquired Chris Paul in one of the most bizarre transactions of the past couple of years, just hours after Mike Dunleavy Jr. claimed that they wanted to keep Poole for the next four years at least.
But that’s not even the biggest issue with the Warriors right now, as there’s still Draymond Green’s contract situation.
However, former NBA player Tim Hardaway Sr. doesn’t want Dub Nation to sweat it or get worried about this, and he confirmed that a good source of his told him that Green is going to re-sign with the team.
“I have a pretty good source that tells me Draymond Green will be signing back with the Warriors.”

Truth be told, it wasn’t shocking to see that Green decided to opt out of the final year of his contract.
That was never about testing free agency or sending a message, or getting some leverage; it was just the logical thing to do.
Now, Green can sign another long-term deal with the organization, and the early reports cite that the Warriors are more than willing to give him what he’s worth in his next contract.
If anything, moving on from Poole all but confirms their commitment to Green, as they didn’t get along, and getting Poole’s salary off their books gives them more flexibility to work something out with him.
We’ve seen crazier things happen, and some won’t believe it until they see it, but there’s absolutely no reason to believe that Green won’t be back in the Bay next season.
