Warriors forward Draymond Green broke down Oklahoma City’s win over the Indiana Pacers in Game 2 of the NBA Finals on the latest episode of his podcast, “The Draymond Green Show With Baron Davis,” and explained why veteran guard Alex Caruso, not young center Chet Holmgren, is the Thunder’s third-most-important player behind his undisputed No. 1 and No. 2 options Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Jalen Williams. “When I look at this OKC team, I actually think the third-most-important player is Alex Caruso …. I think Caruso is so important to what they do and I feel like you never game plan for him,” Green said. “So because you don’t game plan for him, he comes into these Finals and he goes crazy. But the reality is, he’s a champion, so he actually knows what to expect.” -via NBC Sports Bay Area / June 9, 2025
