Overview
- Green was tossed with 10:39 left in the second quarter after shoving Collin Gillespie and continuing to argue with the officiating crew.
- Warriors coach Steve Kerr received a technical during the sequence and later called Green’s second tech “weak,” contrasting it with Dillon Brooks’ prior flagrant on Stephen Curry that did not lead to an ejection.
- The Suns were awarded three free throws in the aftermath, two of which Gillespie made, according to one outlet’s account.
- Golden State pulled out a 119-116 win despite Green’s early exit; he logged four points, three rebounds, one assist, and one block before leaving, creating a defensive gap the bench had to cover.
- A single-outlet report said Green yelled a racially charged phrase at Gillespie after the ejection; that claim has not been corroborated elsewhere.
