Golden State Warriors forward, Draymond Green has said winning the 2015 NBA title is his favorite basketball memory.
Green, alongside the Splash Brothers, delivered the first NBA championship to the Bay Area in four decades, beating LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers in six games.
In the 2015 NBA Finals, the Warriors had to recover from a 2-1 deficit and they did exactly that, winning the next three games to win their first title since 1975, per SI.
Green played an important role for the team throughout the season. He provided balance to the team with the two best shooters of all time, Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson.

Green on 2015's NBA title
Although the Warriors were stunned by James and the Cavaliers in 2016, they went on to win three more titles in 2017, 2018 and 2022.
However, Green said winning the first one still remains his favorite basketball moment, per New York Times.
"2015. Winning our first championship in Cleveland. Because it was a feeling I had never felt before, and it’s a feeling I’ve never felt again. I don’t know how to describe it."
Green added that the 2017, 2018 and 2022 titles were never the same when compared to the 2015 championship victory.
"I did win again, but I haven’t experienced that feeling. I never take winning for granted, but it was never the same as that."
