The Warriors star was upset about a no-call in the third quarter.
Draymond Green was dubbed an honorary Splash Cousin in Tuesday’s 134-120 win over the Los Angeles Lakers ,as he helped spur one of the Golden State Warriors ’ best shooting nights in recent history. With all eyes fixated on Green’s stellar offensive performance, however, the veteran forward wished more attention was paid to what he believed was an egregious missed foul call in the third quarter of the game.
“I get hit in the face every single game, and I get no foul calls,” Green said. “I hit somebody in the face, I get thrown into jail. But when I get hit in the face, we don’t see it… I’m not sure one time it’s been called. But I f---ing blow my breath on somebody, and they’re reviewing it for a flagrant foul.”
Perhaps more known for his on-court altercations, Green was suspended for five games last November for placing Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert in a headlock. Less than a month later, he was handed an indefinite suspension for striking Phoenix Suns center Jusuf Nurkic in the face and ended up missing 12 more games.
