Draymond Green Blames Damian Lillard For His Laughing During Fergie’s National Anthem

Draymond Green says that a remark from Damian Lillard prompted his candid laughter during Fergie’s infamous performance of the National Anthem at the 2018 NBA All-Star Game. The Golden State Warriors star explained that he was already starting to break when he heard Lillard joke, “They got you, dog.”

“You know how you start spiraling, and you gotta get out of it? You just gotta get to the edge?” Green explained to Taylor Rooks over All-Star Weekend. “And she kept going, like, deeper and deeper, and I was like, oh, she’s done. And then she starts spiraling more, I couldn’t believe it, and then, when I really started laughing, Dame was next to me, he was like, ‘They got you, dog.’ So then I really couldn’t hold it in, it was crazy.”
