Four-time NBA champion Draymond Green was in conversation with former teammate Juan Toscano-Anderson and Hollywood actor Rome Flynn recently in an UNINTERRUPTED podcast. Toscano-Anderson, who plays for the LeBron James-led Los Angeles Lakers, currently had an interesting start to the podcast.
Green revealed that the three would be playing a game of dominoes during the length of the conversation. Interestingly enough, Toscano-Anderson said that his mother has a knack for the game and they play together whenever he’s home.

As it turns out, the 2022 NBA champion learned a lot from his mother about the game. So much so, that he issued a bold warning to former Dubs teammate Draymond Green right off the bat.
Former teammate asserts his domination over Draymond Green
Juan Toscano-Anderson was one of the lesser-known names on the Golden State Warriors squad who won the 2022 NBA title. However, he played an important part as a role player coming off the bench.
The 29-year-old recently sat with Draymond Green and Rome Flynn to talk about a variety of topics ranging from basketball to socio-political issues.
Interestingly enough, he felt that he had the upper hand over Green in dominoes because of his mother. Toscona-Anderson’s mother plays a lot of dominoes and he has learned a lot playing with her.
He said, at the very start of the interview, “My mom plays dominoes a lot so I learned from her. She plays it actually more often than I do, pretty often. That’s something that we like to do when passing time. But seeing that I don’t get to go home that often, its very minimal for me. I’m gonna actually enjoy kicking your a** brother.”
This left Green speechless for a couple of seconds. Stunned by the sudden escalation, all he could do was laugh awkwardly.
While Toscano-Anderson made this claim, Flynn revealed that he isn’t that great when it comes to dominoes. On the other hand, Green asserted that the others won’t stand a chance as he is a gambler.
