In NBA Today, the ESPN reporter stated that Green has been disgruntled about how he is constantly anchoring the Warriors against opposing teams' big men.
"I'm hearing too that Draymond's a little frustrated with having to guard centers and having the guys that are 40-50 pounds heavier than him on a nightly basis," Spears said.
The Golden State has three known centers this NBA season. But it is only the 25-year-old Quinten Post who has been an active part of the team's rotation so far.
Al Horford faced several inactivity issues already after joining the team this past offseason, while Trayce Jackson-Davis is mainly being used as an emergency, end-of-bench backup.
Ever since the height of the Dubs dynasty, Steve Kerr frequently operated Green as his small-ball center. But knowing that the four-time All-Star is in his mid-30s already, the Warriors might have to look for another reliable enforcer to lessen the load that Green is carrying.
As the Feb. 5 trade deadline looms, the Warriors could make a deal to add a difference-maker in the middle, wherein they can use their top market asset.
