SAN FRANCISCO — Draymond Green didn’t want to speak much about Klay Thompson in advance of Thompson’s Bay Area return. He declined any denser interviews on it and, when lobbed a Thompson question in a Sunday news conference, ignored and pivoted the conversation toward the NBA Cup.

Before Tuesday's Dallas Mavericks vs. Golden State Warriors matchup, Stephen Curry was supposed to make a public speech for Klay Thompson. Draymond Green shared why he believes Curry didn't go through with it.

Warriors star Stephen Curry destroyed the Mavericks on Tuesday night, and Klay Thompson's actions before the game may have influenced it.
