Draymond Green has been in the news again, this time for being ejected from a game after smacking Jusuf Nurkic with his right hand. This is the third suspension for Green this year, and it has left many fans and analysts wondering if the Golden State Warriors star has gone too far.
The incident occurred during the Warriors’ game against the Portland Trail Blazers on April 7th. Green was attempting to block a shot by Nurkic when he made contact with the Bosnian center’s head with his right hand. The referees immediately called a flagrant foul and ejected Green from the game.
The NBA has since suspended Green for one game without pay, citing his “reckless and excessive contact” as the reason for the suspension. This is the third suspension for Green this season, as he was previously suspended for a game in February for an altercation with the Los Angeles Lakers’ Rajon Rondo and another game in March for an altercation with the Memphis Grizzlies’ Jae Crowder.
Green’s latest suspension has sparked a debate about the NBA’s disciplinary system and whether or not it is too lenient. Some argue that Green’s actions were unacceptable and that he should have been suspended for more than one game. Others argue that the NBA’s disciplinary system is too harsh and that Green should not have been suspended at all.
Regardless of where one stands on the issue, it is clear that Green’s actions were inappropriate and that he needs to be more mindful of his behavior on the court. Green is one of the most talented players in the league and his presence on the court is invaluable to the Warriors. However, if he continues to act recklessly and put his team and opponents in danger, he may find himself in more trouble with the league.
Green has been an integral part of the Warriors’ success over the past few years and his presence on the court is invaluable.
