Draymond Green returns to Warriors on 1-year, $27.7M deal

Draymond Green has agreed to return to the Golden State Warriors on a one-year, $27.7 million deal, Klutch Sports CEO Rich Paul told ESPN's Shams Charania.

Green turned down his $27.6 million player option earlier this summer in a surprising move shortly before free agency kicked off. The decision created financial flexibility for Golden State, which was among the teams in the running to land LeBron James.

However, after James eventually decided to take his talents to Philadelphia, Green and the Warriors moved forward on a new deal.
