On Wednesday night, the Golden State Warriors played the Oklahoma City Thunder at the Chase Center in San Francisco.

The Warriors lost by a score of 105-101.

Draymond Green finished the loss with 10 points, 13 rebounds, seven assists, one steal and two blocks while shooting 4/11 from the field in 32 minutes of playing time.

He also made franchise history by tying Joe Barry Carroll (836) for second on their all-time blocks list.

Following Carroll, the final player for Green to pass on the list will be Adonal Foyle (1,140).

Foyle spent 10 seasons with the Warriors.

He averaged 1.8 blocks per contest over 641 games.
