Warriors forward Draymond Green addressed the media following his third quarter ejection on Tuesday night for striking Suns center Jusuf Nurkić in the face.
“He was pulling my hip and I was swinging away trying to sell a call,” Green explained. “I made contact with him. As you know, I’m not one to apologize for things I meant to do but I do apologize to Jusuf because I didn’t intentionally hit him.”
That may be a tough one to sell to the league office, as it appeared that Green swung his right arm in a punching motion toward Nurkić’s face.
