Both Rudy Gobert and Draymond Green have one of the most heated rivalries in the NBA today. The rivalry reached its boiling point last season when Green tried to choke Gobert from behind during a scuffle between both teams. The situation even resulted in Green facing suspensions. Both stars have also publicly taken verbal jabs at each other in interviews, adding fuel to the fire of their intense rivalry.
Recently, Rudy Gobert posted a video of him sparring with MMA fighters, and the video has gone viral all over social media. Former NBA star Nick Young also hilariously gave Gobert some advice on how to get his revenge on Green. Young posted on ‘X,’ hilariously stating that he could give Gobert access to the Warriors locker room where he could confront Draymond Green. It seems Young really wants to see a fight between Green and Gobert.
Young mentioned that Gobert should also seek revenge on Gilbert Arenas for the negative comments he made on his podcast. The former NBA player had also made many negative comments about Gobert and even stated that the Frenchmen didn’t deserve the Defensive Player of the Year.

The next season’s training camp is starting in just a few weeks, and some players are already preparing. Gobert and his Minnesota Timberwolves had a great run last season but eventually fell short in the Western Conference finals. In the upcoming season, they will be preparing to elevate their game and win the franchise its first championship.
Draymond Green mocked Rudy Gobert for getting benched during the Olympics
The beef between Draymond Green and Rudy Gobert is well-known in the NBA. In the 2024 Paris Olympics Gobert represented France and was the starting center for the team. But it was that due to poor performance in the Olympics, the French coach benched Gobert against Canada in the quarterfinals of the tournament.
During the tournament, Green took another verbal jab at Gobert through his podcast. Green mocked Gobert for getting benched, claiming that not playing many minutes in an Olympic game as an NBA player is unacceptable. Gobert, on the other hand, stated that he had a finger injury that kept him on the bench. Despite not competing in the Olympics, Green continued to take constant jabs at Gobert on his podcast.
To be taken out of the lineup on any other team in the Olympics as an NBA player, not named Team USA, is kind of crazy.

France defeated Canada even though Gobert only played for three minutes. Despite losing a close final to Team USA, Gobert was able to secure the silver medal. The ongoing rivalry between Gobert and Green shows no signs of slowing down. Fans can anticipate more confrontations between the two stars in the upcoming season when their teams face each other.
