After missing 16 games due to an indefinite suspension following an incident against the Phoenix Suns, Draymond Green will make his highly anticipated return to the court on Monday against the Memphis Grizzlies.
In his return, the former Defensive Player of the Year will not suit up alongside Steph Curry and Klay Thompson in the starting lineup. Green will come off the bench against the Grizzlies.
With Green coming off the bench, Steve Kerr opted to start Steph Curry, Klay Thompson, Andrew Wiggins, Dario Saric and Kevon Looney. The Grizzlies will be missing several key pieces on Monday, including Ja Morant, Desmond Bane and Marcus Smart.
