The duo of Steph Curry and Draymond Green is one of the most successful in NBA history. While often overshadowed by the Splash Brothers connection, and the dynasty years with Steph and KD, the Curry-Green connection has been a staple during Golden State's rise to greatness. On Friday, March 4th, Steph wished his longtime teammate a happy birthday.

In a message posted to Curry's instagram story, Steph said, "Happy Bday my dog!!! Chapter 32!!!! Love you bro. Keep shining. Can't wait to have you back on the court bro." Steph and the Warriors have been without Draymond for several weeks now, as he has been sidelined with injury. After the Warriors' loss to Dallas on Thursday, head coach Steve Kerr said, "We desperately need Draymond."

Everything from the team's record to advanced stats confirm that they certainly need Draymond Green back on the court, but when that will happen is unclear. The Golden State Warriors are 28-6 when Draymond Green plays this season. That win percentage (.832), would be good enough for first-place in the Western Conference. Having gone just 15-14 in his absence, the Warriors are in danger of falling to 3rd, and perhaps even further.

While the team awaits Draymond's highly anticipated return to the court, they will need to find ways to win without him. A good place to start is in Los Angeles against the Lakers on Saturday night.
