Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green suffered a right-foot injury in the second quarter of a game against the Philadelphia 76ers on Thursday night. The injury occurred during a rebound sequence when 76ers forward Dominick Barlow fell across Green's foot. Green hobbled off the court and headed straight to the locker room, eventually ruled out for the night. In his place, Trayce Jackson-Davis started for the Warriors in the second half, as the team continued to struggle with a deep deficit. According to USA Today, Green left the arena in a walking boot and expressed hope to 'play through it,' but the extent of the injury remains unclear. Warriors head coach Steve Kerr stated that he has not spoken to Green and that the team will take a cautious approach until medical evaluations are complete. The Warriors will wait for imaging and further evaluation to determine the severity of Green's injury and a potential return date. For now, the team is left to navigate the road trip with another key player out of commission. The game ultimately ended in a 99-98 loss to the 76ers, with a put-back by rookie VJ Edgecombe and a chase-down block by Tyrese Maxey sealing the result. FAQs: - What happened to Draymond Green?
