NBA insider: Draymond Green played through sickness vs. Clippers
Draymond Green excelled defensively Wednesday, leading the Golden State Warriors to a win despite battling a reported illness.
Draymond Green made an incredible defensive stand in Wednesday's win over the Los Angeles Clippers, forcing two turnovers during crunch time in what ended as a five-point Warriors victory. Following the game, NBA insider Shams Charania reported that Green had been playing with an illness throughout the duration of the contest. "Team sources told me Draymond Green was sick; he was throwing up, puking all over the place in pregame, sideline in the back area by the locker room," said Charania.
Although Green has yet to confirm this, it would mark another iconic "flu game" from another No. 23. Despite the reported sickness, Green is not listed on Golden State's injury report ahead of Friday's elimination game against Phoenix.
