Draymond Green’s Suspension Rumors Catch Coach Kerr off Guard Amidst Security Claims in Latest Warriors’ Trouble

Draymond Green found himself in deep waters again during last night’s game against the Orlando Magic. The Warriors forward got tossed from the game after getting two quick technical fouls within the first 4 minutes of the game. Draymond’s first technical foul came after he allegedly bumped into an official. According to the NBA rulebook, that could lead to a one game suspension for the former DPOY. Amid ambiguity about Draymond’s availability for tomorrow’s game, Warriors head coach Steve Kerr was caught off guard by the news of Green’s possible suspension.
During his appearance on 95.7 The Game radio show, Steve Kerr reacted to Draymond possibly getting penalized with a 1-game suspension for bumping into the referee. “I had no idea that there was a bump. I didn’t think there was a bump. So, this is the first I’ve heard of it.” Kerr was surprised to hear about the possible penalty and claimed he had not received any word from the league. Kerr claimed there were several security personnel available to stop Draymond from escalating the issue but it was up to the Forward to not get another technical foul.
