"What you got for me tonight baby?": Draymond Green's wife Hazel Renee gets fired up for Warriors-Celtics game 

Draymond Green's wife Hazel Renee showed her excitement for Wednesday night's game between the Golden State Warriors and the defending NBA champions Boston Celtics. With a strong 6-1 start to the season, the Warriors are looking to make a statement against the team they beat in the 2022 NBA Finals.

Hazel posted Green's stats (18 points, eight rebounds and five assists) from the Warriors' victory over the Washington Wizards, where he was named Player of the Game by Golden State. She included a message to pump him up ahead of this exciting matchup.

"What you got for me tonight baby baby?!" she captioned the post.

In the Warriors' strong start, Draymond Green is averaging 8.9 points, 5.6 rebounds and 4.3 assists per game while shooting 48.7% from the field. The four-time NBA champion has been key to the team's early success and tonight's game is the biggest test for him and the Dubs in the early season.

Golden State is entering a challenging stretch, as they face the Celtics (7-1) tonight, then the Cavaliers (8-0) and the OKC Thunder (7-0), who are both undefeated entering Wednesday's games. After that, they will host the Dallas Mavericks and Memphis Grizzlies followed by a game against the LA Clippers — the only team to beat them so far this season — on Monday, Nov. 18.

Draymond Green and Jordan Poole exchange taunts during Warriors-Wizards game

The relationship between Jordan Poole and Draymond Green took a hit during the 2022 NBA offseason when Green punched Poole in an altercation during practice. That incident changed the dynamic of the team and many believed it hurt the Warriors' chances of defending their 2022 championship.

Although two years have passed since the incident, Monday's Warriors-Wizards game made it seem like both players still had animosity toward one another. After hitting a 3-pointer over Green, Poole celebrated by pointing at him.

Draymond Green had something to say too as he posted up against Poole in the next possession. He set up Steph Curry in the corner, which led to a buzzer-beater 3-pointer to end the first half. Green took the opportunity to clap back at Poole and point at him.

Green still praised Poole after the game, noting his improved play and shooting since joining the Wizards, even with some early struggles in Washington. The Warriors have surprised many with their strong start, and Green’s contributions have been essential in their success.
