Draymond Green may not believe the Earth is flat like Kyrie Irving does, but he isn’t totally against the idea.
One of the most interesting things to come out of an All-Star Game press conference this weekend is that Cleveland Cavaliers point guard Kyrie Irving believes the world is flat.
Irving may not be alone in questioning the spherical nature of the Earth. On Saturday, it emerged Golden State Warriors power forward Draymond Green may too be a flat Earth truther.

Green isn’t as adamant about the flatness of the world, but could buy in to Irving’s line of thinking. He would dispel the photos sent to the world by NASA, saying that he can take a panoramic photograph on his iPhone. To him, that is the genesis of creating a circular world.
In truth, Green is probably just trolling his former Team USA teammate Irving. Green said Irving would go off on tangents about a lot of strange things while they played together in the 2016 Rio Olympics.
Overall, Green has been one of the most interesting All-Stars in New Orleans this weekend. His goal to be as inclusive as possible at the event in New Orleans. He wants to wreck any awkwardness that might be had between for Oklahoma City Thunder teammates Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook. Green also now has Irving’s back on putting Galileo in his place.
From the looks of it, while Duke and Michigan State can produce elite NBA talents as basketball blue-bloods, the universities may need to invest in some more globes. Just because a guy can put an orange sphere through a hoop doesn’t mean that he’ll believe the earth is round.

Green seems to be on the fence about this. Let’s bring him back to Earth with a thing called gravity. Is he skeptical of the properties of gravity, too?
