Draymond Green shocked the NBA by opting out of his Warriors contract to chase big-name free agents — including LeBron James — but after LeBron headed to Philly, Draymond returned to Golden State on the same $27.7M deal for his 15th season, tying him with Steph Curry for the longest tenure in franchise history. Yet, this might be the final chapter for the championship core, as both Curry and Green are set to become free agents next year, and even coach Kerr, who nearly retired last season, just signed a new deal. Draymond also revealed LeBron’s decision wasn’t about the Warriors’ team or culture — it was about legacy and the backlash he’d face joining forces with Steph. The 2016 Finals, especially Draymond’s suspension, still casts a long shadow, reminding us how deep the LeBron-Warriors rivalry runs — and how much the narrative of superteams still shapes player decisions.
