Draymond Green isn’t a marquee star that is known for box score numbers or an offensive arsenal, but he still remains a compelling and polarizing figure in the NBA that is noted for his trash-talking, on-court dirty works and defensive ability.
The 33-year old big man has constantly made headlines for his rough plays and other aggressive antics on the court. In fact, Green once again became a hot topic after he stomped on Domantas Sabonis’ mid-section after the later grabbed his leg.
Green was ejected and feuded with Kings fans in the arena. When Green was asked about the altercation that led to his ejection, the four-time champion blamed Sabonis for grabbing his leg.
“My leg got grabbed. Second time in two nights. Referees just watch it. I gotta land my foot somewhere and I am not the most flexible person, so I can’t stretch it that far… I can only step so far with him pulling my leg away, it is what it is. The explanation was that I stomped too hard… I wasn’t surprised that he stayed down.”
