He's not the same player he was 5 years ago. Just look at his stats. Also the GSW can't pay everyone. Paying him the max would cost the Warriors over $30M a year in luxury tax.

Okaaaaay 🤣Does Draymond Green warrant a max contract extension?Golden State Warriors Victory Parade &amp; RallyFor years, Draymond Green's performances have flown under the radar. His impact on the game isn't necessarily visible in the final box score. However, it is easy to understand his importance when you see the Warriors play.Green is an integral part of the the franchise. The Warriors' defense revolves around Green, as he is arguably the best defender in the game and can guard all five positions.However, keeping aside nearly $140 million for Draymond Green would be a mistake on the Golden State Warriors' part. He is an average shooter and is on the wrong side of 30. The Warriors have young players like Jonathan Kuminga and Jordan Poole to consider when allocating cap space.While Green deserves plaudits for his contributions to the Warriors, whether he deserves a max contract is open for debate.
