Warriors' Draymond Green
Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green was once again ejected from an NBA game - this time against the Phoenix Suns on Tuesday (Dec. 12) at Footprint Center in Arizona. The reason for ejection this time was hitting Suns center Jusuf Nurkic on the face. It happened in the third quarter of the game when the Warriors were leading 65-60 and Green already had one technical foul against him.
As for the play, Green was getting into the position with Nurkic defending him near the left corner of the court. Green, in order to reposition himself, moved around a bit and swung wildly which ended in his right hand smashingacross Nurkic's face. Have a look at the video below:
The Suns center went down immediately on the floor and stayed there for multiple minutes as Green existed with 2 points, 2 rebounds, and 2 assists to his name on the night.
