Draymond Green, who is quite popular for his odd takes, made a bold statement about the NBA not wanting its players to be wealthy despite having a lavish four-year contract.

The conversation rose on “The Big Podcast,” where the Golden State Warriors veteran made many comments, one of them being the salary earned by the players and what lasts after their retirement. Draymond stated, “It’s actually not set up for us to be wealthy after we’re done playing… It took my mom 4 years when I was growing up to make $100k. And I lose that a night because, what?”

While talking to host Shaquille O’Neal, the former DPOY winner pointed out how much they are taxed on their salaries and the fines imposed on them. Green made a strange comment on the fine, as players have complete control over their behavior, which could prevent them from getting fined.

As soon as Draymond’s remark was shared on social media X (formerly known as Twitter), the NBA community came roaring back.
