The league and Draymond Green’s former teammates have been closely watching his recent on-court behavior. One of those teammates is Nick Young, who has the opportunity to comment on the former Michigan State Spartan’s shenanigans.

“That’s growth; the old Dre would’ve gone all the way with that kick he held back, hahaha,”captions Young while sharing the video of Green and Williams.
