Draymond Green can be a difficult dude on the court, but the Golden State Warriors star was nothing but a softie following the birth of his son on Thursday.

Green welcomed Draymond Jr. to the world in a sweet Instagram post also thanking all the important ladies in his life.

Green missed the Golden State Warriors' game in Brooklyn to fly home to the Bay Area for his baby boy's birth and wrote "I've never experienced such a feeling like I did when I watched his entry."

Green watched his son being born on FaceTime while on the plane, he told reporters Friday. He was excited and yelling so much in his first-class seat that people thought he was crazy — yeah, that's the Dray we know.

The 26-year-old said he rejoined his teammates in Detroit for Friday's game because he knew his family was healthy and because that's the life of an NBA player who has to be with his basketball family.

Here's to a long life of lessons from father to son ... like watch where you're kicking, young man.
