The Golden State Warriors took care of business against the Sacramento Kings, handily dispatching their division rivals, 113-98. While the result was routine, their sideline servicing was anything but that on Monday night.
Draymond Green's son Dray Jr. was seen doing all he could to provide a helping hand for the Warriors. His efforts went viral as he provided assists for both his dad and Stephen Curry.
He even tried to get Klay Thompson in on the action. Draymond Jr. walked up to the Warriors sharpshooter to give him some gear while still nursing his injury in street clothes.
His efforts even caught the attention of a certain LeBron James. The Los Angeles Lakers star couldn't help but react on Instagram when he saw Dray Jr. putting in the work from the Warriors bench.
“Love that. Lil man smooth and locked in,” said LeBron James to his longtime Warriors adversary.
Draymond Green was clearly motivated by his son's morale boost as the Warriors star poured in a triple-double of 16 points, 11 rebounds, and 10 assists, the 31st of his career to lead the franchise.
Via ESPN:
“This organization is amazing to allow him … to sit there and help,” Draymond Green said after the game. “You miss so much doing this job and those are the moments where it's all worth it. For him to have that experience, it's special. I don't take that for granted.”
Getting the courtside experience bodes well for Draymond Jr. in the future. Lest we forget that a few decades back, Stephen Curry was the one cheering on his dad Dell Curry from the sidelines. We all know how that turned out.
The Golden State Warriors would be smart to keep tabs on the youngster.
