Report: Warriors’ Draymond Green Sends Strong Message Serbia Team After Demolition

On Thursday, Team USA rallied to defeat Serbia 95-91, securing a spot in the gold medal game against France at the 2024 Paris Olympics. The final score doesn’t tell the full story, as the Americans staged an epic comeback after trailing for most of the game, even falling behind by as much as 17 points. Denver Nuggets star Nikola Jokic had Serbia playing exceptionally well, but Warriors sharpshooter Stephen Curry stepped up to lead the U.S. to victory. Meanwhile, Curry’s teammate Draymond Green, who was watching from home, was just as nervous as the fans.

On his podcast, The Draymond Green Show, Dray discussed with Baron Davis how he almost intervened to help Team USA rally.

“My heart was in my stomach watching this game,” Green said. “I was so close to putting Bron and Steph in a group chat like, ‘Bruh, come on.’ At halftime, we were down by 11, and I was this close to texting them.”

“I was tweeting like a muhf**ker,” Green also added in response to Davis saying that the Olympics gave a different feeling than the usual NBA game.

“I was tweeting like a mutha,” Green continued. “We couldn’t lose this game, because, man, although I didn’t end up on this Olympic team, I remember vividly winning in 2021 and like, saying, ‘Yo, the next step is to beat France in France.’ And somehow, France, they beat Germany. I know how. Matchups was good for them.”
