Having spent his entire career in Golden State, Green has been integral to the dynasty built alongside Steph Curry and the recently departed Klay Thompson. Widely regarded as the heart and soul of the Warriors, Green's outgoing approach to the game is part of what makes him so invaluable.
This personality has also landed Green different media opportunities, including alongside Shaquille O'Neal, Charles Barkley and the NBA on TNT crew.

Green and O'Neal have had some great banter in their television appearances together. The two have also shared postgame moments when Green joins the TNT broadcast as a player to be interviewed by the Inside the NBA analysts.

Earlier this week, some major news was announced regarding O'Neal. The former Los Angeles Lakers champion will be honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, not too far from where he won three championships in Downtown Los Angeles (h/t Billboard).
Reacting to this news, Green made a post on his Instagram story.

O'Neal has done a lot in his career, both on and off the court. While he is best known for being a four-time NBA champion and 15-time All-Star, his contributions off the court have been equally as significant. This is seen in his broadcasting career, numerous business ventures, and philanthropy.

Too Much star Megan Stalter reveals she was terrified when Lena Dunham first messaged her
Too Much star Megan Stalter has admitted she was terrified when writer Lena Dunham first approached her to be part of the forthcoming Netflix show. The 10-episode romantic comedy series stars Stalter, who's best known for her role as the chaotic nepo baby Kayla in the Emmy-winning comedy show Hacks, alongside White Lotus actor Will Sharpe. Speaking to The Guardian, Stalter said that Dunham, who has won two Golden Globes for her 2012 series Girls, first messaged her on social media to discuss her being involved in the project. 'I was at home: this really bad apartment in Laurel Canyon [in the Hollywood Hills],' she said. 'The area is haunted, and it was actually a really scary building, and nothing ever got fixed because apparently in the lease I signed they didn't have to repair anything!' She continued: 'We were just about to start filming Hacks again. And there Lena was in my DMs [direct messages]...That's when I lost my mind. Panic set in. Stalter said she doesn't ordinarily 'fan girl over people' but with Dunham, it was different. 'She's a creative genius,' she said. 'I'm such a Girls nut, and always felt so connected to her.' She added: 'Anything she wanted me to do, I would obviously say yes.' Dunham co-wrote Too Much with her husband, British musician Luis Felber, and the series is loosely inspired by their relationship. 'I think obviously the seeds of it came from our life, and then once you begin writing, you find out who the characters are and you take a journey that moves away from it,' she said. 'I always like to write from a place that begins with the personal, because I think personal stories are universal – and then see what it has in store for me.' Too Much follows Jessica, portrayed by Stalter, a New York workaholic in her mid-30s who relocates to London after a painful break-up. There, she meets Felix, played by Sharpe, with whom she shares an unexpected connection. Too Much is available to stream on Netflix from Thursday, 10 July.

2025 Jacksonville Jaguars' roster preview: CB Montaric Brown
With offseason programs now behind us, we will be getting a jump start on our training camp preview by going player-by-player through the Jacksonville Jaguars' 91-man roster. Going alphabetically, up is cornerback Montaric Brown. Advertisement Montaric Brown's profile Height: 6-0 Weight: 190 Age: 25 NFL experience: 3 seasons College: Arkansas No. 30 2024 Snap count totals Defense: 855 Special teams: 149 2024 PFF grades Defense: 62.2 Special teams: 51.2 2024 Season Review Brown appeared in all 17 games defensively last season, which included making 10 starts. While he allowed a completion rate of 70%, Brown did hold opponents to just 11.3 yards per catch, limiting YAC with his steady tackling abilities. He also had one interception and five pass breakups. Looking ahead to the 2025 season Brown is competing with Jarrian Jones and Travis Hunter for the starting outside cornerback role opposite of Tyson Campbell. From the sounds of it, Brown has the early advantage in this battle, with ESPN's Michael DiRocco reporting that he was working with the first team defense throughout OTAs and minicamp. Advertisement In Anthony Campanile's vision-based and zone-heavy defensive scheme, there were a number of practices where we heard about Brown getting his hands on the ball while in coverage. By all accounts, Brown has acclimated himself well so far to this new system. "That's who he's been every day that I've been here," Anthony Campanile said of Brown's ball production. "And I can only go by what I see every day that I'm out here, he competes. He loves to compete. "Same thing like Tyson, whether it's on the line of scrimmage, he's not afraid to challenge people. To challenge people at the top of the route and play with technique, but whatever he's gotta do to strain and make the play, he's been doing that, which is awesome. That's what we've been preaching and he's doing that every day." This article originally appeared on Jaguars Wire: Previewing Jaguars' 2025 roster: A closer look at CB Montaric Brown
