For people who are familiar with the NBA, the name Draymond Green should bot be new to you. Draymond Green is a professional basketball player for the Golden State Warriors. He is a perennial all star power forward and could be on his way to the basketball hallĀ of fame. Now you may be thinking, what does Draymond Green have to do with entrepreneurship. During this year’s NBA finals Draymond Green was playing in, Green had an idea to make a podcast. He called it “The Draymond Green Show”, and he would make new episodes after every finals game. In these podcasts he would discuss what happened in the game, like what he could have done better, how the team could have done better, what the team did well, and other interesting talking points related to the NBA finals game the day prior. Seeing as Draymond Green is a very successful NBA player, he has plenty of money to where he doesn’t have to do anything else but keep playing basketball. But Green’s entrepreneurial drive made him think of other ways he could make a profit. What I could learn from this is that no matter how wealthy you are, there is always room for improvement.
I do not like Draymond Green
I am a big NBA fan and listen to Draymond’s podcast a lot, it was very smart of him to create this show about something as popular as basketball, especially when he is so knowledgeable about it!
I like that Draymond saw an opportunity to entertain people and took advantage of it through his podcast. This is something a lot of people would be interested in listening to, and maybe he can capitalize off of it with advertisement deals. If I were a business owner, I would love for an NBA star such as Draymond Green to promote my business. His podcast can act as an advertising platform
Really interesting how some NBA players could have not made it to the finals and be all pouty about it. Draymond was able to overcome the losing mentality and create something not only to make money, but something that NBA fans could listen to and enjoy. Although Draymond is not a well liked player, he created something new for the fans.
