One of the big rumors that has begun to pick up steam around the NBA in recent weeks is Draymond Green joining the Los Angeles Lakers.
Even before Green’s now-infamous decision to punch out one of his teammates, his association with LeBron James and Klutch has been under extreme scrutiny.
This week, during his team’s season opener against L.A., Green took a moment out midgame to speak with James.
Eagle-eyed fans immediately picked up on Warriors legend Andre Iguodala’s reaction to the chat James and Green were having:

Reactions, understandably, came in like a tidal wave. Everyone seemed to largely be on the same page:

Interestingly enough, Iguodala was actually one of the first veterans to really come out and vocally defend Jordan Poole after Green punched him.
And while Klay Thompson’s take on the situation left a lot to be desired, Iguodala didn’t play the middle of the road in the same way.
ESPN NBA insider Adrian Wojnarowski’s recent report on Green’s future with the Warriors was telling. Ditto for Iguodala’s reaction to Green and James chatting midgame.
A 3-team trade involving the Lakers and Warriors, which could land Green in L.A., has already been floated.
At least one interesting thing happened at the Chargers game this week. https://t.co/AOtkMWoKde

Will Green ultimately find his way to Los Angeles a lot sooner than anyone anticipated?
Time will tell.
