Monday night's game against the Washington Wizards was a very emotional one for the Golden State Warriors. Draymond Green returned to action with Klay Thompson and Stephen Curry for the first time in 1005 days.
Once Green stepped on the floor, magic started to happen for the entire team. The ball was moving around, and the offense was flourishing.

“I thought it was beautiful,” Green told ClutchPoints. “That's kind of been brewing. I think in the last game against Milwaukee, the ball movement was beautiful.”
The Warriors beat the Milwaukee Bucks 122-109 last Saturday as well. Thompson had 38 points and Jordan Poole scored 30 in the win.
“We had a couple of those plays where it was too good, and then we got a shit shot up because everybody's just moving the ball… The reality is if that's your turnovers coming because you over passing, you can find that balance, and I think we're starting to find that balance, and it's beautiful,” Green added.

The team believes they have everything they need to win another championship. These last few games of the season will be the final test to see if the Warriors are dreaming or if they have what it takes to win it all.
