If it was up to Damian Lillard, Draymond Green would be a member of the Portland Trail Blazers, not the Golden State Warriors.

According to The Athletic's Anthony Slater, Lillard has been “obsessed” with finding a way for the Blazers to swing a trade for Green.

“The Blazers would love to have him,” Slater said, on the HoopsHype podcast with Michael Scotto: “(Damian) Lillard has been obsessed with getting him there for a while.”

Later in the episode, Scotto mentions that Draymond Green-to-the-Los Angeles Lakers buzz picked up when Green began appearing on LeBron James‘ HBO show, “The Shop.” Slater said the Warriors forward has had “flirtations” with the Lakers and Blazers.

Per Slater, even if the Warriors and Green want to continue their partnership until the end of Green's career, there may be contractual complications down the road, which could lead to Green winding up on another team.

“Draymond has two years left. … He’s had some flirtations with the Lakers and even the Blazers a bit. His game isn’t quite again like (Steph) Curry’s is. I’d say if the Warriors lowball him coming off his next contract or whatever happens over the next couple of years, I could see his situation morphing into more of a breakup. That’s not necessarily because he doesn’t want to play with Curry.

I think in their ideal world, Draymond, Steph and Klay are chasing titles until they’re all retiring together. I could see Draymond’s situation playing out a little bit more messy than Steph’s would, and the fact that Draymond’s not locked into a long-term deal like Steph is. If another team is willing to give Draymond a contract that the Warriors aren’t in a couple of years, I could see that going differently, even if their dream scenario would be to play forever.”

Green, 31, is under contract for $24 million and $25.8 million, respectively, over the next two seasons, and has a $27.6 million player option for 2023-24.
