Draymond Green Details Wembanyama Trash Talk and Wiped-Out Dunk as Reports Flag Calf Strain

Media reports project a two-to-four-week calf absence for San Antonio’s star, reshaping the short-term fallout from the Warriors’ one-point win.

Overview

  • On his podcast, Green said he blocked Wembanyama on the prior possession, exchanged heated words, and told him he was "too little" and "scared."
  • Moments later, Wembanyama caught an inbounds lob from Stephon Castle and dunked over Green, but officials had already called a foul that nullified the basket.
  • The erased dunk became the game’s most-shared clip despite not counting in Golden State’s 109-108 comeback victory.
  • Stephen Curry scored 49 points to power the win, and Green later praised Wembanyama’s improvement and work ethic, saying, "Respect earned."
  • ClutchPoints reported Wembanyama has a left calf strain expected to sideline him about two to four weeks, a timeline not yet announced by the team.
