Floyd Mayweather Gives His Vote For Draymond Green To Start The All-Star Game

Draymond Green has turned plenty of heads since he left Michigan State and was drafted by the Golden State Warriors.

Green, who was the 35th pick in the 2012 NBA Draft, looks nothing short of a lottery pick as of late. For the 2015-16 season he has been putting up Magic Johnson-esque numbers. On the season, he is averaging 15 ppg, 9.6 rpg and 7.4 apg.

Last week when the new NBA All-Star voting came out, Green had enough votes to start for the Western Conference.

Green appears to have a fan in famed boxer Floyd Mayweather. If Green needed any help to maintain his starting position in the All-Star game, he may have gotten the help he needed from Mayweather's 6.6 million Twitter followers.

Green once again had a triple double on Friday evening. That's Green's fourth triple double in five games.
