Warriors' Draymond Green doesn't hold back discussing injury concerns image

Draymond Green had a rough outing against the Los Angeles Clippers on Monday night.

Following the tight loss, the Golden State Warriors veteran didn’t hold back on how he was feeling physically.

“I’m beat the f*** up,” Green said. “I’m beat the hell up right now.”

For a moment, Green looked like an easy candidate to rule out before the game ended, as he was seen in pain after crashing into the bench. However, he stayed on the court and finished his shift for the night.

After the game, Green was in positive spirits and even assured the media that he would be “alright,” but it’s quite clear that the long season is making life tough on the Warriors forward.

“Crashed into the bench, right after that, I rolled my ankle, I fell on my wrist, and hurt my left wrist. It’s just an accumulation of this game,” he added.

The Warriors Return to the Court on Wednesday

The Warriors are back home in the Golden State, gearing up to host the Milwaukee Bucks on Wednesday night. 

Green is on the injury report for the outing, listed as questionable due to a left ankle sprain. It’s his first injury in quite some time.

While Green missed a recent outing against the Oklahoma City Thunder, he got the night off to rest, alongside a handful of key players, who missed the game. 

Since then, Green returned to the court to face the Utah Jazz. His night would last 12 minutes, as he was ejected in the first half for arguing with officials. 

When Green returned to take on the Clippers, he finished with six points, five rebounds, and 12 assists in 32 minutes of action. 

Green’s status for Wednesday against the Bucks is up in the air. The two teams are slated for a 10 PM ET tip.
