Draymond Green was selected as one of the reserves selected to join the All-Star Game on Thursday night. It shouldn’t come as a surprise to anyone considering how well he’s played this season, but it’s still a big deal for Green, since it’s his first time being selected to play the game and because he does everything with lots of emotion.
Draymond Green held back tears after being named to the All-Star Game so he wouldn’t be the new Crying MJ meme
But when he was informed he was going to the All-Star Game in Toronto, he decided to hold back for a very specific reason:
Draymond on TNT: "I almost started crying but I didn’t want to get killed on Instagram, have them make me the crying face instead of Jordan"

Can’t say we blame him for holding back.
