After the practice session video went viral, Green took some time away from the Warriors camp. He also apologized for his mistake and said, “I failed as a leader.” Months after the incident, the duo is in a completely different space. They played an impactful role as the Warriors secured the 6th seed in Western Conference. Fans can expect more from the duo in the postseason.
