Warriors' Draymond Green ejected after shove match with Dillon Brooks
Draymond Green was ejected as the Golden State Warriors took on the Phoenix Suns at Chase Center on Monday, Nov. 2.
There's a history of hostility between Golden State Warriors star Draymond Green and Phoenix Suns guard Dillon Brooks. The tension escalated during the Warriors-Suns game on Monday, November 2nd. In the early minutes of the game, Green committed a foul against Suns center Khaman Maluach, causing Maluach to hit the ground. Green then intentionally shoved Maluach, leading to two calls - an initial foul and a subsequent technical foul for shoving Maluach.
Green received a visit from Brooks, his longtime rival, who joined the fray and pushed Green in return. Both players were separated by their teammates, coaches, and officials, but not before the officials issued double-technical fouls to Green and Brooks. As a result, Green was ejected from the game following his second technical foul, which is an automatic ejection.
Green exited the game during the third quarter, in the 10-minute mark, after playing 17 minutes. Green finished the game with four points, four rebounds, two assists, and a steal despite the ejection.
