Draymond Green's wife Hazel Renee pens heartfelt message for Warriors' $37,756,096 Game 7 hero

Draymond Green and the Golden State Warriors are advancing to the second round of the playoffs after overcoming a highly physical Houston Rockets squad. With their season on the line, the Warriors' veterans led the charge as Golden State secured the 103-89 victory.

Among the stars that came up big in Game 7, one shone brighter than all the others: Buddy Hield, who had a shooting performance for the ages. Green's wife Hazel Renee, a steady supporter of the team through the years, gave Hield his flowes in an Instagram story on Monday:

"Buddy clocked in for work for Game 7," Renee wrote in the story's caption.

Renee and the rest of the Warriors fanbase were delighted to see Hield go off for 33 points in the do-or-die game at Toyota Center. Heading into Game 7, the Bahamian guard — who is currently on a four-year, $37,756,096 contract as per Spotrac — had averaged 7.2 points per outing in the series, with his best scoring performance coming in Game 3 (17 points).

More impressively, Hield made nine three-pointers in this game, tying Donte DiVincenzo's record for most threes in a playoff contest. Thanks in large part to Hield's hot shooting, Golden State shot 41.9% in this winner-take-all game. On the other end, they held Houston to just 33.3% (6-for-18) from beyond the arc.

While it's unlikely that Hield will go 9-for-11 again in the near future, the Warriors are counting on his consistent scoring as they head into a tough series against the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Draymond Green trolls Houston Rockets forward after Game 7 win: "Spoiled milk"

While Green's wife had kind words to say for Hield after Game 7, Green himself went on X to troll one of his playoff opponents in the recently concluded series.

On Monday, Green resurfaced a year-old clip of Rockets forward Tari Eason taunting the Warriors. The former Defensive Player of the Year added insult to injury in his caption:

"Spoiled milk," Green tweeted.

Clearly, Green thought that Eason's taunt aged like milk after the Rockets ended up getting eliminated by the Warriors this past weekend.
