When the Golden State Warriors bought the Chicago Bulls draft pick that netted them Jordan Bell this past summer, the immediate reaction - or at least, the reaction that immediately followed the justifiable anger and scorn directed at the Bulls front office - was that the Warriors may have landed the next Draymond Green.

Sure enough, Bell is already thriving as a rim-runner and multi-positional defender for the Warriors, and the current Draymond Green seems to see some of himself in the rookie teammate tabbed as the next him. According to head coach Steve Kerr, Green has taken Bell under his wing, in a way only Green could.

"Draymond has taken a particular interest in him," Kerr told reporters Sunday, according to The Athletic's Anthony Slater. "Mentored him and tormented him at the same time."

Mentor or tormentor, Green is obviously doing something right. On a per-36-minute basis, Bell is averaging 15.2 points, 10.7 rebounds, 3.4 assists, 2.1 steals, and 3.6 blocks, while shooting 74.5 percent from the field and posting a 24.0 PER. On a team full of future Hall of Famers, Bell has the best net rating, and the Warriors have been 12.3 points per 100 possessions better with him on the floor.
