Draymond Green Says DeMarcus Cousins Will Make Warriors Debut vs. Clippers

Draymond Green is known for his versatility on the court, but he added another skill to his resume Wednesday when he played the role of breaking news reporter.

The Golden State Warriors star announced in an Instagram story that DeMarcus Cousins will make his debut with the team Friday against the Los Angeles Clippers.

Warriors head coach Steve Kerr confirmed earlier this month that Cousins was looking at Jan. 18 as the date for his first game back after he tore his Achilles last January. Kerr reiterated after Tuesday's 142-111 win over the Denver Nuggets that the four-time All-Star center was set to suit up Friday, per ESPN.com's Nick Friedell.

In an interview on SportsCenter, Cousins called the Warriors "the most hated team in sports," which is a source of motivation for him:

The timing of Cousins' return couldn't be much better. Golden State has won five games in a row and sits first in the Western Conference after beating the Nuggets.

Meanwhile, if Green really wants to show off his reporting chops, he should find out where MLB free agents Manny Machado and Bryce Harper are going to sign.
