Draymond Green Shares Bold Prediction for Lakers vs. Nuggets

Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green has released a new episode of his podcast. Following elimination, Green shared his prediction for the Los Angeles Lakers vs. Denver Nuggets Western Conference Finals series.

Green started by highlighting the Anthony Davis vs. Nikola Jokic matchup, detailing what makes Jokic so difficult to deal with.

"The great thing about [Jokic] is that you can move him all over the court," Green said. "You can move him to the high post, you can move him to the block, you can move him to the elbow, you can move him to the middle of the paint, the free throw line area. You can move him around and that I think will create some issues for the Lakers' defense, especially with how they want to play with AD."

On his series prediction, Green saiid, "It'll be a good series. Ultimately, Denver is ready, man. I think Denver is ready, like Denver is taking that next step, they're doing it, we're watching it ... but I think we're going to have a rerun of 2020. And I think the Lakers will take it. I got the Lakers and I got the Lakers in six. Closing out at home in six."

The 2020 Western Conference Finals rematch is in place, and it should be a good one between two teams who have their sights set on a championship.
