What happened: Green declined an equal-value player option in June before returning on a replacement contract. The new agreement waives his implied no-trade right.
Why it matters: The structure preserves Golden State’s ability to move Green during the upcoming season without his consent. His return maintains continuity in the frontcourt after a month of free agency.
By the numbers: Green averaged 8.4 points, 5.5 rebounds and 5.5 assists per game in 2025-26.
What to watch: Golden State can now proceed with its remaining offseason roster decisions before training camp.
