Warriors' Draymond Green Begins Counseling Following Indefinite NBA Suspension

Green's Return to Play Contingent on Meeting League and Team Conditions

  • Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green has begun counseling following his indefinite suspension from the NBA for striking Phoenix Suns center Jusuf Nurkic in the face during a game.
  • The suspension, which was announced on December 13, was due to Green's 'repeated history of unsportsmanlike acts', according to the NBA.
  • Green's return to the NBA is contingent upon meeting 'certain league and team conditions', which include undergoing counseling.
  • The specifics of Green's counseling have not been revealed out of respect for his privacy, but he is expected to be sidelined for at least the next three weeks.
  • This is Green's second suspension this year, following a five-game suspension in November for putting Minnesota’s Rudy Gobert into a headlock during an altercation.
