Golden State Warriors star Draymond Green has been out of the lineup, because of a sore calf muscle. He has been missing in action at a time the Warriors are struggling to win games. In this post, though, we’re answering a question on all Dubs fans’ minds: Is Draymond Green playing vs Pistons?
Is Draymond Green playing vs Pistons
Well, is Draymond Green playing tonight? The Warriors’ most recent loss was at the hands of the Minnesota Timberwolves on Sunday. It was a 119-99 blowout loss, and Jordan Poole led the Warriors in scoring, with 20 points. Not only were the Dubs missing Green, but they also were without Stephen Curry who was injured too.
Green is having a tremendous season and is obviously important to the Warriors’ success. He’s averaging 7.9 points, 7.6 rebounds, 7.4 assists, 1.4 steals, and 1.2 blocks while shooting 53.7% from the field, which would be a career-high shooting mark. He orchestrates traffic on offense and is the anchor of an elite defense.

Many don't understand how valuable Green is until he's missing. When he is out you can expect to see the Warriors struggle a bit. The Warriors are 31-12 but have run into a tough portion of the season. They have a mediocre record of 4-6 in their last 10 games. If Green isn't back soon, it could mean trouble for the Warriors.
The Dubs play the Pistons inside the Chase Center on Tuesday, and they could desperately use Draymond Green’s assistance. The team will have Klay Thompson, and Stephen Curry so that should be helpful.
The Dubs at full strength would be clear favorites in this matchup. Unfortunately, the Warriors are going to have to win without Green. The Warriors discover his calf soreness is caused because of a disc in his back, and he will be out longer than originally planned.
So when it comes to Draymond Green playing vs Pistons? It’s not happening.
