?He Ran Out of Teammates to Punch?: Following Stephen Curry?s 40+ Game, Draymond Green?s Overconfidence Has NBA Fans Mocking Him in Win vs Wizards

The Golden State Warriors were undermanned against the Washington Wizards. Their stars Klay Thompson, Jonathan Kuminga, Andre Iguodala, and James Wiseman sat out due to precautionary measures and injuries. However, they soared past the Washington Wizards, bagging their second win on the road. The Warriors teetered toward a 9-point victory after a sluggish start to the game. This was due to Stephen Curry and Jordan Poole’s magic. Contributions for the defending champions came from everyone on the lineup. Moreover, Draymond Green?s 17-point game stood out alongside Curry and Poole. As the Warriors bathed in this victory, there were moments in the game that gave NBA fans a reason to mock the Dubs.

During the fourth quarter, with 2 minutes left in the game, Curry passed the ball to Green. Looking at the gap ahead of him, Green attempted a layup. As he made his way to the basket, he jumped up high and drew a foul. Green went tumbling down, away from the court, and celebrated with the notion that he had made the shot. But in reality, the four-time champion had missed the basket. He punched the air and flexed his muscles. Green continued to celebrate while yelling out a few “come-ons” and “yeah let’s go”. As he made his way to the free-throw line, Green looked fired up. It took him more than 20 seconds to realize that he was celebrating for nothing as the shot hadn’t gone in. NBA Fans jumped to mock him for his overconfidence.

NBA Fans ridicule Draymond Green

Fans found this incident to be hilarious. They filled the YouTube comments section with laughing emojis and stated that only Draymond could pull such a thing off. While commenting about his celebration, some stated that he was punching the air because Green was not allowed to punch his teammates. Here are some of the reactions:
