LOS ANGELES — Intent on maximizing his first All-Star Weekend two years ago, Warriors forward Draymond Green seldom said no. Those four days in Toronto were a blur of promotional events, photo shoots, media availabilities, after-parties — anything he could squeeze into his itinerary.

“I was changing clothes in the car, and taking a 15-minute nap when I could,” Green recalled recently. “It was bad, but it was a great experience. I just never want that exact experience again.”

For more than two weeks, the Warriors have talked openly about being drained and looking forward to the All-Star break. Now, as the first team in league history to have four All-Stars in back-to-back years, the Warriors face a bit of a conundrum in Los Angeles: How do they ensure a midseason respite for their four best players?

Head coach Steve Kerr has taken a hands-off approach, trusting Green, Stephen Curry, Kevin Durant and Klay Thompson to sort out their schedules while he vacations in Hawaii. The good news for Golden State is that, with a combined 21 All-Star selections between them, Green, Curry, Durant and Thompson know better than to overload themselves.

Most items on their respective itineraries are explicitly required by their sponsors or the league. It also helps that, in an effort not to burn out their players, the NBA has canceled Friday’s big media circuit. Outside of post-game availability Sunday, the All-Stars only need to speak to reporters Saturday afternoon.

To help ease them back into the regular-season grind, Kerr will give his four All-Stars two days off after Sunday’s All-Star Game. That leaves them with only one practice before Thursday’s home game against the Clippers. While their teammates practice Tuesday evening, Green, Curry, Durant and Thompson will be free to relax.

“It’s just like any other job, to be honest,” Kerr said. “No matter what you do, you need a vacation. So, if you can get away for a few days, go somewhere nice or do something fun, it helps anybody. I think our guys will feel that, for sure.”

Before taking Golden State majority owner Joe Lacob’s private plane Wednesday night from Portland to Los Angeles, Green, Curry, Durant and Thompson reviewed detailed, personalized itineraries that the Warriors’ PR staff had constructed with each player’s advisers. The schedules range in busyness based on personal preference.

Thompson, who would rather hang out with his beloved English bulldog, Rocco, than attend a promotional event, probably has the sparsest itinerary. Outside of league-mandated events, a cameo at the nearby Riviera Country Club for the PGA Tour’s Genesis Open, a podcast with a well-known NBA scribe and a turn in the three-point contest, he will spend much of his time with friends and family.

Two years after cramming his schedule at his first All-Star Weekend, Green’s promotional tour is limited to some of his biggest sponsors like New Era, Nike and Beats by Dre.

Curry, who has made a point in recent seasons not to overburden himself with non-basketball duties, has little on the docket beyond a few TV appearances.

Durant, who plans to attend the NBA All-Star Tech Summit and a slew of promotional events, has the most chaotic schedule. Meanwhile, Golden State’s 11 non-All-Stars are using the break to do what Kerr calls “filling up your soul cup.”

Some will fly to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. Andre Iguodala will golf, and Omri Casspi — out of the rotation after a strong start to the season — will take two days off before returning to the gym for individual drills.

“The way I look at it, the NBA season is a very long season,” Casspi said. “Sometimes you have to have times to kind of digest everything. On the fly, it’s a lot harder.”
