Golden State Warriors’ Draymond Green suspended indefinitely: report

The NBA is suspending Golden State Warriors star Draymond Green indefinitely following a bizarre incident Wednesday night in which he appeared to throw a punch at Phoenix Suns center Jusuf Nurkić, hitting him in the face. ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski was the first to announce the news. In an interview after the incident, Green insisted it was an accident, saying: “(Nurkic) pulled me by the waist and I turned away to sell the call and made contact with him… Like You know, I’m not the type of person to do that.” I apologize for things I wanted to do, but I apologize to Yusuf. I didn’t mean to hit him.” This isn’t the first time Green has gotten into trouble for physical altercations – he’s been sent off three times this season and a total of 19 times throughout his career, the most, according to CBS Sports among active players.
