Overview
- On his podcast, Green said he deliberately goaded Wembanyama before an inbound, calling him “too little” and “scared.”
- He recounted Wembanyama’s reply and described the sequence in detail, noting a spin, one step, and a left-handed lob catch he could not contest.
- Officials ruled a foul on Green during the battle for position, so the dunk did not count in Golden State’s 109-108 comeback win in San Antonio.
- Green cited NBA.com numbers showing Wembanyama went 8-for-21 with six turnovers when guarded by him across the two-game set.
- He closed by praising Wembanyama’s work ethic and saying “Respect earned,” with the rematch set for February 11 at Chase Center.
