RBS Ep #3.
Warriors’ Draymond Green ejected vs. Suns after striking Jusuf Nurkić in face…

IS DRAYMOND GREEN A DIRTY PLAYER?

Golden State Warriors star Draymond Green was ejected during the third quarter of Tuesday’s 119-116 loss to the Phoenix Suns. Green appeared to be grappling for post positioning against Suns big man Jusuf Nurkić near the corner, swung around and nailed Nurkić in the face with a wild right arm. Nurkić went down in a heap and stayed down for about a minute.

Officials stopped the game for a review but it did not take long. Green was ejected and didn’t even dispute it. He ran straight to the locker room. The NBA is expected to assess the situation in the next 24 hours and likely hand Green another suspension.

Green has a history of suspensions. In November he was sidelined for five games by the league after he grabbed Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert around the neck “in an unsportsmanlike and dangerous manner.” It was the fifth suspension of his career.
