Draymond Green deal happening this week?

Sources with knowledge of the situation have passed along that a new contract agreement could indeed be struck as early as this week. I’m told that Green and the only NBA team he’s ever known have discussed various structures to keep the defensive ace in place. One option is a one-year pact that would pay a similar dollar figure to the $27.7 million player option that Green declined to give the Warriors added flexibility to try to win The LeBron Sweepstakes. Another option is a multi-year deal that comes in at a lower average annual value for the 36-year-old.
