After going ejection-less for a good stretch of weeks, Draymond Green was tossed for the fourth time this season against the Orlando Magic. The former defensive player of the year is one of the smartest athletes in the game today. Green gets extremely passionate when he’s on the floor. He always keeps his teammates pumped up during challenging scenarios. But this time, his passion led to an unfortunate ejection.

Referee Ray Acosta rewarded Steph Curry with a foul while Paolo Banchero drove the basket. While this was just another ordinary play, Green flared up and argued with the official. Curry and other Golden State Warriors members stood by Green to keep him from crossing the line. Moments after the scuffle broke off, Green uttered something that triggered Acosta to toss him out of the game.

On to the next one! BOUNCE BACK!” Obviously, fans weren’t pleased with how Green carried himself on the floor.

Therapy didn’t help at all

One fan said, “Therapy didn’t help at all.” Green had to go through therapy after his third ejection this season. The 4x NBA Champion acted erratically which had him suspended indefinitely. Another fan said, “Lock in for the rest of the season Draymond please, and thank you.” It is important to have Green on the floor, especially since the Warriors are just over a game outside the 11th seed.
