After Jordan Poole’s 2-pointer with 90 seconds left in the game, Green received a technical for going outside the bench area to celebrate Poole’s shot.
Less than a minute later, Donte DiVincenzo made a long shot, forcing Curry to reach the opponents’ basket and the “Warriors” star deliberately started to celebrate the points scored by his teammate. He actively waved the towel, but after a moment he immediately received a technical note from the match referee.
Curry appeared to be trying to defend his teammate Green. In a postgame interview, Green admitted he appreciated Curry’s support.
The Golden State bench, including the coaching staff, laughed when Curry received the technical.
The NBA has paid more attention this season to players not leaving the bench during a game, and if they do, a technical will be issued.
It should be mentioned that last season in the finals of the Western Conference, the Dallas Mavericks constantly violated the boundaries of the bench.
