Jimmy Butler, Draymond Green among ‘most overrated,’ per NBA players – NBC Sports Bay Area & California

Each Jimmy Butler and Draymond Inexperienced have been integral to the Warriors’ success all through the 2024-25 NBA season, however perhaps not as integral as you would possibly suppose.

At the very least in keeping with their friends.

Whereas it is perhaps honest to say Butler and Inexperienced are polarizing gamers, there isn’t any questioning the affect they’ve had on the Warriors each in years previous, in Inexperienced’s case, and this season.

One is a finalist for the league’s Defensive Participant of the 12 months award, whereas the opposite single-handedly reworked Golden State into a possible title contender after his arrival in a blockbuster commerce on Feb. 5.

No matter how some NBA gamers would possibly view Inexperienced and Butler, their worth definitely shouldn’t be misplaced on the Warriors.
