During an emotionally discussion surrounding his indefinite league suspension, Draymond Green, the star of the Golden State Warriors, revealed in a recent episode of “The Draymond Green Show” that NBA Commissioner Adam Silver dissuaded him from retirement. Expressing his overwhelming feelings, Green stated, “I told him, ‘Adam, this is too much for me… It’s all becoming too much for me, and I’m going to retire.'” According to Green, Silver intervened, advising against a hasty decision and emphasizing his support. Green acknowledged the commissioner’s positive approach, praising Silver for being player-focused and supportive.

Green, currently serving a 14-game suspension, is set to make a return. Following a month of counseling, the NBA reinstated Green, with sources indicating his return to the Warriors’ lineup within a week. Ongoing counseling sessions are expected to continue as he resumes playing.Upon his return, Green will rejoin a struggling Warriors team ranked 11th in the Western Conference with a record of 17-19. In the current season, he has averaged 9.7 points, 5.5 rebounds, and 5.8 assists in 15 games. Despite being in the first year of a four-year, $100 million contract, Green has incurred financial losses of $153,941 for each game of his suspension.
