Draymond Green once again proved his irreplaceable value to the Golden State Warriors, finishing the night with the highest plus-minus on the floor. While others may grab headlines with flashy scoring, Green continues to influence games with grit, precision, and sheer basketball IQ. In the Warriors’ 110–100 home win over the Orlando Magic, Green delivered his most efficient performance of the season—scoring 20 points on 8-of-11 shooting, along with 4 rebounds and 5 assists.
He didn’t force the action early, instead opting to set up his teammates. It wasn’t until five minutes into the game that he attempted his first shot—a clean three-pointer from beyond the arc. Even with Stephen Curry sidelined, which naturally reduced the team’s pick-and-roll threat, Green didn’t miss a beat. In fact, his scoring output marked a season high, showcasing his ability to step up when needed.
The most electrifying stretch came in the fourth quarter, when the game was on the line. During a crucial surge that put the game out of reach, Green became the driving force behind a 10–0 run. He assisted Kevin Durant on a key basket, drained back-to-back threes with surgical accuracy, and capped it off with a strong drive to the rim in transition. That explosive burst helped the Warriors seal the victory, and Green’s energy was contagious.
What truly stood out was his plus-minus: +25, the highest on either team and 9 points higher than the next best, Shaun Livingston. It was a clear indicator of just how much the Warriors thrive with Green on the court.
Despite being considered one of the least offensively dominant All-Stars in the league, Green remains an essential piece of the Warriors’ puzzle. His average this season of 10.2 points, 7.9 rebounds, and 6.7 assists per game reads like a near triple-double—and reflects his all-around value. He’s not the player to close games with buzzer-beaters, but he’s the glue that holds the system together.
Fans of Bangladesh Cricket Live can relate to Green’s role.
