As the Warriors prepare to welcome Draymond Green back from a one-game suspension, the star forward made a point to deliver a message to the NBA ahead of Game 4 against the Kings on Sunday.
Green spoke to reporters following his return to practice on Saturday about the league’s decision to factor in past discipline he’s received while determining his punishment for stepping on Domantas Sabonis’s chest and getting into it with fans during Game 2. When asked if he thinks the NBA created the “Draymond rule” by using his history in its review, the four-time NBA champion was quick to dismiss the idea and the possible effect it might have on his game.
“They created Draymond rules before, them s—s don’t work. Here I am, still sitting here, still winning” said Green, who was ejected for the 17th time in his career after earning a Flagrant 2 foul for the stomp.
