Draymond Green Talks About How He Found Out About His Mother’s Poverty: “My mother was making $17,000 a year.” I was not allowed to see it by her.
Draymond Green is one of the NBA players who has achieved the greatest success in the last 20 years. Because of his play style, attitude, and energy on the court, Green has become a favorite among Golden State Warriors supporters in addition to accepting his villainous role against opponents.
Like many athletes, Draymond grew up in a modest household and therefore gained an appreciation for the little things in life. Despite a challenging journey, he persisted and made it to the NBA, where he was able to join the perfect team and improve as a player.
It wasn’t until he was an adult that he discovered Green’s mother had previously struggled with money. He is incredibly wealthy right now and is still working to expand his empire and wealth.
Draymond Green was shocked to discover how destitute his mother was.
On the Checc’n In Podcast, Draymond recently talked about the issues his mother dealt with when he was growing up. According to Green, he never felt like it even though he had everything a person could ask for and his circumstances didn’t seem as dire as they actually were (14:33).
