Warriors’ Draymond Green ejected in opening minutes vs. Magic

With Jonathan Kuminga already ruled out on the second leg of a back-to-back Wednesday evening against the Orlando Magic, the Golden State Warriors were already short-handed.

Yet, just minutes into the contest in Orlando, the Warriors lost another key contributor. With four minutes off the clock, Draymond Green received a pair of technical fouls and was ejected from the game after arguing with official Ray Acosta.

Green appeared to disagree with a foul call from Acosta. Then later when Steph Curry was assessed a foul, Green continued to go back and forth with the official. Once Acosta assessed the first technical foul, Green showed no signs of slowing and quickly picked up his second technical and was ejected from the game with eight minutes remaining in the first quarter.

Following his ejection, Green’s teammate Steph Curry had an emotional reaction on the sideline.

Green has been ejected four times during the 2023-24 season, including two suspensions.
