Warriors Draymond Green slapped with season’s fourth ejection
The Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green faced an early ejection during the team’s game against the Orlando Magic where Warriors proved victorious with 101-93.
Green’s ejection, which was his fourth in the season, came just three minutes and 36 seconds into the game after disputing a foul call on Stephen Curry, the BBC reported.
This foul call was also Green’s second technical foul having earlier argued against a personal call.
This adds to his string of violent behavours as previously, Green was absent from 16 games after he was suspended in December for striking Phoenix Suns player Jusuf Nurkic.
Before that, the 34-year-old forward faced a five-game ban for putting Minnesota Timberwolves centre Rudy Gobert in a headlock in November.
Additionally, last year, he also faced suspension during playoffs after he stamped on Sacramento Kings player Domantas Sabonis.
However, the Warriors proved victorious over the Orlando Magic despite Green’s ejection.
Warriors, who sit 10th in the Western Conference, bagged a win against the Miami Heat on earlier this week as Andrew Wiggins scored a team-high 23 points while Curry finished with 17 points and 10 assists.
Unfortunately, Magic’s second-straight loss keeps them fifth in the Eastern Conference.
