Overview
- Green protested a missed three-second call on Kyle Filipowski, shouting "Three! Three!" at referee Simone Jelks before receiving two rapid technicals at 2:25 of the second quarter.
- After the first whistle, he turned to official Kevin Cutler and drew a second technical that triggered the automatic ejection.
- The toss raised his career total to 25 ejections, second-most in NBA history behind Rasheed Wallace’s 29.
- Golden State rallied without him, winning 123-114 as Stephen Curry scored 31 points with 20 in the third quarter to move the Warriors to 19-17.
- This turbulent stretch follows a Dec. 20 ejection versus the Suns and a Dec. 22 sideline dispute with coach Steve Kerr, with Green now tied with Luka Doncic at nine technicals this season and trailing Dillon Brooks’ 12.
