As a defending champions, they have become one of the most valuable franchises in the NBA

The Warriors may not be willing to spend their cash on a max contract extension for Draymond Green that exceeds $140 million

Green will earn $25.8 million next season, with a player option for $27.6 million the following year

Green would earn $167 million over the next five seasons if his contract is extended

Also, the contract would expire when the Michigan State product turns 37

Stephen Curry, the reigning Finals MVP, said he would not be happy if the Warriors did not pay Green

The Warriors paid a league-record $346 million in luxury taxes and player penalties last season, but if they pay Green, the number could reach $400 million - too high for Warriors' owners
