Charles Barkley's advice on reining in Warriors' Draymond Green: 'Clock him one time' [View all]

Charles Barkley on a Zoom call, fielding Draymond Green questions? That’s like a wide-open layup.

Barkley spoke to reporters Wednesday to promote next month’s American Century Championship, the annual celebrity golf tournament near Lake Tahoe. At one point, Barkley was asked how he would have responded to Green’s animated chatter if they played against each other in a game.

“You just have to clock him one time, with a good shot,” Barkley said. “Draymond reminds me of Dennis Rodman. Anytime I’d play against Rodman, I’d hit him as hard as I could early in the game, and he would stop all of those antics. I’d do the same thing against Draymond.”
