Draymond Green says Warriors have ‘moved on’ after Kristaps Porziņģis steps back from playing: ‘You can’t sit and worry about spoiled milk’

Draymond Green stated that the Golden State Warriors have moved on after center Kristaps Porzingis announced he is stepping back from basketball indefinitely. Porzingis, 31, posted on social media that he is stepping away from the game to prioritize his health regarding an undisclosed issue. Green emphasized that the team cannot dwell on the situation, comparing it to worrying about spoiled milk.

Porzingis has not played a game this season while dealing with ongoing health problems. The Warriors, who started the season 0-3, have won six consecutive games to improve to 6-3 despite his absence. Reports noted that Golden State has withheld Porzingis's salary during his time away and had previously explored potential trades involving his contract.
