- Draymond Green and Jordan Poole got into a physical altercation at practice.
- Draymond Green has -300 odds to beat Jordan Poole in a boxing match.
- The Golden State Warriors remain favorites to win the NBA Finals at +575 odds.
SAN FRANCISCO – There is trouble in paradise for the reigning NBA Champions, the Golden State Warriors after TMZ leaked security footage of Draymond Green punching Jordan Poole in practice and turning out the lights.
Online betting sites were quick to action following the altercation and are now offering odds on a potential boxing match between the teammates in which Draymond is a heavy favorite to win. Although Bovada’s odds are in favor of Green though, there is one main point that backs Poole’s odds.
Draymond Green Vs. Jordan Poole Boxing Match
- Green -300
- Poole +200
First off, it isn’t hard to see why entertainment oddsmakers have Green favored given he has the height and weight advantage over Poole. If the two fought soon, Green would go in standing at 6’6 and weighing 230 pounds compared to Poole who is two inches shorter at 6’4 and 36 pounds less at 194.
Also, in the video that was leaked by TMZ, Draymond’s punch that connected looked very impressive, to say the least, and was clearly powerful enough to knock Poole out cold.

However, do not count out Poole from winning just yet as there are plenty of factors to take into consideration such as his speed. Also though, Poole could win in points if Draymond’s trend of hitting his opponents below the belt were to continue as we’ve seen time and time again.
If that were to be the case, Poole’s odds wouldn’t be half bad and would offer a nice return.
How Has This Affected the Warriors Odds?
In simplest terms, the Warriors NBA Finals odds have not shifted in the slightest following the fight and they remain the favorites to win at +575 odds, and rightfully so.
Now that could change though is the Warriors were to ship off Green in a trade to avoid any more turmoil and there have been some serious rumors to back that up involving Green wanting to play for the LA Lakers if he were traded.
