In response to Draymond Green’s recent actions that led to his indefinite suspension by the NBA, Steph Curry discussed the situation. Green’s latest disciplinary measure resulted from striking Phoenix Suns’ Jusuf Nurkic, causing his ejection from the game and subsequent suspension by the league authorities.

Curry and Green, integral members of the Warriors’ “Splash Brothers” trio alongside Klay Thompson, have played a significant role in the team’s success, clinching the league title on four occasions together.

The conversations yesterday were about him personally, making sure the focus is geting right, getting on a path that allows him to be who he needs to be as a person, as a man, a husband, and a basketball player in that order.

Both the league and the Warriors, including staff and players, are committed to providing Green with the necessary support during his suspension. The Warriors, currently facing a challenging season with a record of 10-14, will confront the Brooklyn Nets in their upcoming game.

Draymond Green’s career suspensions

As one of the most compelling characters in the NBA, Draymond Green has been ejected three times this season and has accumulated six career suspensions, including two already in the current season— a distinction unmatched by any other player in the league this season.

During Game 5 of the 2016 NBA Finals, he earned a one-game suspension by engaging in an altercation with LeBron James. Subsequently, in April of this year, he received a second one-game suspension for stomping on Sabonis’ chest. Last month, a five-game suspension was handed down as a consequence of his use of a chokehold on Rudy Gobert.

To navigate the challenge of playing without their star player, the Warriors must strategize, considering Wiggins and Chris Paul as likely replacements for the games he will be sitting out.
