Draymond Green punching Jordan Poole at Warriors practice was a bit shocking for Patrick Baldwin Jr. and teammates to witness.
"In the moment, you kind of saw the first reaction," Baldwin said."I had seen stuff similar to that. But overall, as a basketball team, I think we’ve just got to take that and move forward. Really push together."
At 19 years old, Baldwin is the youngest player on the Warriors' roster. Golden State features multiple players aged 21 or younger on its training camp roster, including key pieces to the franchise's future like Baldwin and fellow first-round picks Jonathan Kuminga, Moses Moody and James Wiseman.
When he returns, Green's relationship with Poole will be tested, but the forward also will need to reconcile with young teammates like Baldwin if he wants to reclaim the leadership role that has proven to be vital to each of the Warriors' titles.
