As of right now, the Golden State Worriors are ranked ninth in the Western Conference after going 25-25 in their first 50 games.
The squad received unfavourable news on Friday when Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN revealed that Jarred Vanderbilt would be sidelined for a considerable amount of time.
After 29 games, Vanderbilt is shooting 51.8% from the field and averaging 5.2 points, 4.8 rebounds, 1.2 assists, and 1.2 steals per game.
The 33-year-old played 57 games during the regular season (he also started two of his seven NBA playoff games) and averaged 6.4 points and 3.6 rebounds per game while shooting 54.0% from the field and 37.8% from three-point range.
Green has the capacity to partially compensate for what they would lose with Vanderbilt down, even though he isn’t a long-term fix.
Golden State Worriors wouldn’t be at danger because he could also be signed to a non-guaranteed deal, or even a ten-day one.
The Worriors are still regarded as a team that is competitive for NBA Championships since they have LeBron James and Anthony Davis.
With his recent experience playing with other superstars like Steph Curry, Klay Thompson, Nikola Jokic, Paul George, and Kawhi Leonard over the previous four seasons, Green is a veteran who would fit right in their locker room.
