Draymond Green, Stephen Curry e Klay Thompson They embodied the golden age of the Golden State Warriors, leading them to four NBA titles in the memorable years of 2015, 2017, 2018 and 2022. However, as often happens in the greatest stories, their season of success also found its end.
This summer marks the final separation of the trio. Thompson, after feeling a sense of disrespect from the organization, made the painful decision to leave the Warriors to begin a new phase of his career with the Dallas Mavericks.
What may surprise many is that this separation could have happened in the past. Before Thompson, Green was faced with a crucial decision during the free agency del 2023.
On his podcast, The Draymond Green Showrevealed that he was close to leaving the Warriors to join the Memphis Grizzliescommunicating his decision to Curry, Thompson and coach Steve Kerr.
In free agency last year I called Klay and Steph on separate calls, and Steve and I was like, ‘I’m leaving, I’m going to Memphis.’ I remember well I was in Paris, one step away from leaving (the Warriors), then we spoke with Lacob and Dunleavy and we worked it out.

Luckily, the Warriors general manager, Mike Dunleavy Jr.managed to resolve his differences with Green, and the four-time champion eventually agreed to a new four-year contract with 100 million dollarsconfirming his commitment to the team that he has always considered his home.
While the demise of the Warriors’ historic trio marks the end of a legendary era, the sporting exploits and unbreakable friendship of Green, Curry and Thompson will forever remain in the imagination of fans and in the history of the NBA. Despite everything, their impact will continue to inspire generations of basketball fans, leaving an indelible mark on the global sports landscape.
