Draymond Green already has made plenty of history on the court. He's a three-time NBA champion, three-time All-Star and the 2016-17 Defensive Player of the Year.
That's just the start to a long list of accolades for the former second-round draft pick, too.
The Warriors' star forward has made history off the court as well now. The Athletic's Shams Charania reported Monday morning that Green becomes the first Warriors' star in their current dynasty to receive an opt-out in a long-term contract.
Golden State's Draymond Green has become first Warriors star in dynasty to receive player option on a long-term deal, with ability to opt out of four-year, $100M extension in 2023, league sources tell @TheAthleticNBA @Stadium.— Shams Charania (@ShamsCharania) August 5, 2019
Green reportedly can opt out of his four-year, $100 million contract extension after the 2022-23 season. Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson never received an opt-out option in their contracts.

Curry will become a free agent after the 2021-22 season, while Thompson is under contract through the 2023-24 season.

Green possibly left plenty of money on the table when he signed his extension one year before becoming an unrestricted free agent. By having an opt-out option, he could have another chance at a big payday.
