On January 25, Beijing time, according to US media reports, the latest injury situation about Golden State Warriors star Drummond Green was released, and at present, for Green, he will continue to be absent for at least a week.
Pierce reported: "Green will be absent for at least a week, but the news heard now is almost undetermined about his return." Players have had this situation before, but for Green, he will still have to continue for a while."
"Green is so important to the Warriors, like we saw Gobert's absence having a big impact on the Jazz, and now, the Warriors are going through that as well. The team needs Green on both ends of the spectrum, but it's really uncertain when he'll be able to return."
According to statistics, when Dream Green came out, the Warriors' defense was good, and they could rank 11th in the league in terms of limiting the opponent's shooting rate. In the last seven games Green has been absent, the Warriors' limit on opponents' shooting percentage has fallen to the bottom of the league.
Even more embarrassing, in the first six weeks of the season, the Warriors had an offensive efficiency of 112.4, second in the league. Last month, however, the Warriors only played an offensive efficiency of 110.5, ranking 18th in the league.
Since January, the Warriors' offensive efficiency is 106.4, ranking 28th in the league. As a result, the Warriors are on a downward trend both offensively and defensively.
