Suspended Draymond Green Joins Jay-Z and Beyonce To Celebrate LeBron James’ 39th Birthday Amidst “Counseling” Sessions

LeBron James’ 39th birthday was perhaps the biggest NBA event when closing the year in 2023. King James is now the oldest active player in the NBA and shows no signs of slowing down. To commemorate the milestone, a huge part was thrown and all the big stars of both the basketball world and Hollywood appeared at the elusive event. Jay Z and Beyonce were among a few highly famous names on that star-studded list.

However, according to reports, even amid his suspension, disgruntled Warriors star Draymond Green also made an appearance in ‘flashy’ clothes. Green faced suspension for the second time this season, the first time being when he punched Rudy Gobert in the face while he was protecting fellow Warrior Klay Thompson.

Draymond Green has been absent from the Golden State Warriors lineup since December 12 due to an “indefinite” suspension imposed by the NBA for his actions in a game against the Phoenix Suns. The four-time champion struck Suns center, Jusuf Nurkić, with a wild swing, causing him to fall to the ground after contact with his head. Green has missed seven games, and his return date remains uncertain.

The rough playing style of the four-time NBA champion will remind fans of a different era in basketball. Particularly the bad boy Pistons era of basketball. Even an ex-Detriot Piston John Salley said in an interview, “I know he wears a Bad Boy T-shirt under his uniform.”

The NBA has undergone significant changes since the 90s, where plays deemed normal then might result in ejections or suspensions today. The aggressive style of the Bad Boy Pistons, as highlighted in Michael Jordan’s Last Dance documentary, showcased a willingness to use any means, even at the expense of injuring the 6-time champion.

Draymond Green, known for his aggressive play, faced little scrutiny when his actions contributed to the Warriors’ championship victories. At that time, he was hailed as the best defender in the league and a vocal leader for the team. However, with the Warriors currently struggling, Draymond’s behavior is now viewed differently.

The season has revealed that Draymond’s playing style may no longer align with the modern NBA. To be an asset in helping his team win again, Draymond may need to make adjustments.
