Training brawl at NBA champion!

Training scandal in the NBA!

The best basketball league in the world is currently preparing for the start of the season in just under two weeks. While most of the players and teams are starting the training and friendlies calmly, one is already up to speed: Draymond Green (32)!

According to “The Athletic”, the superstar forward of the Golden State Warriors does not shy away from teammates. In a Warriors training session on Wednesday, he is said to have attacked fellow player Jordan Poole (23) with a fist!

According to the report, Green and Poole were said to have been at war verbally before the mini-fight. At some point the argument degenerated, the two players are said to have pushed each other.

Then Green would have struck – and also hit! However, Poole was able to complete the training session and was not seriously injured in a teammate’s attack.

Those responsible for the Warriors are now considering how Green will be punished for the incident. The Elite Defender is known for being abusive to fellow players. Especially if, in his opinion, they do not sacrifice everything for team success.

As NBA insider Chris Haynes reports, several teammates are said to have noticed in the weeks before that Poole was behaving unusually. One possible reason: the nimble guard is facing a lucrative contract extension. Around 100 million wave Poole.

Did Green want to make a more than questionable announcement with his punch? After the incident, he is said to have apologized several times, but there should still be a disciplinary punishment.

Stupid for Green: his contract expires in the summer of 2024. Such incidents are likely to deter potential buyers. Because a premature extension with the Warriors is almost impossible.

Green attracted attention in 2018 with a public tantrum. In a game against the Los Angeles Clippers, he clashed with superstar teammate Kevin Durant (34) on the bench during the game.

According to several media reports, Green Durant is said to have announced during the dispute that the Warriors did not need the superstar. Although the San Francisco-based team had won two out of three possible titles, Durant left Golden State after the season and joined the Brooklyn Nets.

At least on this point Green was right: Last season, Golden State won the NBA title without Durant. In the finals, the Warriors beat the Boston Celtics 4-2.
