Warriors News: Draymond Green Makes $3.1 Million Donation To Michigan State

Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green cashed in on his NBA success this season, re-signing with the Dubs with a five-year, $82 million deal. 

Now with all the money, he decided to give a $3.1 million donation to his alma mater, Michigan State, according to Forbes:

The donation will go to support two of Michigan State’s top athletic priorities — facilities and endowments — in their Empower Extraordinary campaign. Specifically, Draymond’s gift will go to help build a new strength and conditioning room in the room in the Jack Breslin Student Events Center as part of an overall facility renovation.

“Michigan State means everything to me,” Green said. “I grew up in Saginaw and and was lucky enough to attend Michigan State University where Coach [Tom] Izzo believed in me and gave me the chance to succeed. I wouldn’t be the person I am today without my Spartan experience and this donation reflects my deep appreciation to the University. This donation isn’t just about me. I want more kids to have the opportunities I had thanks to Michigan State and want to use this to stimulate all Spartans to give back to the best university in the world."
