Forward Draymond Green has reached a four-year, $99.7 million extension with the Golden State Warriors, a person with knowledge of the deal told USA TODAY Sports.

The person requested anonymity because he was not authorized to speak publicly until the deal was announced by the team.

Green is entering the final season of a contract that will pay him $18.5 million in 2019-20, bringing the full value of his deal to five years, $118.2 million.

Green is a vital part of Golden State’s success, helping the Warriors to titles in 2015, 2017 and 2018. He is a three-time All-Star, was the 2016-17 defensive player of the year and is a five-time All-NBA defensive team selection, including all-defensive second team in 2018-19. He anchors Golden State’s highly ranked defense.

He is a top-notch defender, able to guard multiple positions, and he also facilitates on offense. Last season, Green averaged 7.4 points, 7.3 rebounds, 6.9 assists, 1.4 steals and 1.1 blocks.

With Kevin Durant leaving Golden State for Brooklyn and Klay Thompson out for a significant portion of the season with a torn ACL, Green’s performance alongside Steph Curry and D’Angelo Russell will be crucial to Golden State’s success in 2019-20.
