Even in his 11th season, Draymond Green is still finding new creative ways to facilitate for his teammates. The four-time All-Star turns a steal against the Washington Wizards into an adventure as he picks off an inbounds pass and has to stay nimble to prevent the still-loose ball from rolling out of bounds. Sensing he’s running out of available real estate, a quick-thinking Green finally corralls the ball and heaves a pass to Andrew Wiggins for an open layup before careening over the end line. The four-time champion stuffed the stat sheet with 17 points, six rebounds, 10 assists and three steals in the Golden State Warriors’ 127-118 win on January 16, 2023.

Green’s box score was predictably versatile, with 10 points, nine rebounds, three assists, two steals and one block in a sizable win on May 18, 2022.

The do-it-all forward was exactly that on December 25, 2021, with eight points, eight rebounds, 10 assists, three steals and three blocks in a 116-107 win over the Phoenix Suns.
