In this story:

Everyone has a bit of a competitive nature inside of them. Let’s face it, we live in a world where you have to work hard to play hard. Every day, hundreds of people apply for the same job position where the reality of the situation is that only one individual will be hired for the role. This reality goes beyond corporate America. It is an act of life, even in the NBA.

That was the situation in Golden State with Jordan Poole and Draymond Green. They both were looking to get paid in full by the Golden State Warriors. Those competitive spirits is what led to the fight between the two. If it wasn’t for that fight, there’s a good chance Jordan Poole wouldn’t be with the Washington Wizards right now. But what exactly was said that caused this fight?

Jordan Poole’s words to Draymond Green were “You’re an expensive backpack for 30”. Yes, 30 is the jersey number of the great Steph Curry. That comment must have came from the fact that Draymond Green is making a lot of money and wants to continue to do so as he is no longer in the prime of his career anymore. Draymond Green is known as the heart and soul of this team in Golden State. He is the leader of this team particularly on defense, but he plays a huge role offensively as well despite not being an explosive scorer.  

All the drama is now behind Jordan Poole as he has a fresh start in Washington with the Wizards. Poole is hoping to turn things around for this team as they failed to make the playoffs. Jordan Poole’s is set to play in Golden State vs. the Warriors on Friday, December 22, 2023 at 10 PM ET.
