  "account": "On Monday night, the NBA showcased a heated rivalry game between the Golden State Warriors and the Phoenix Suns. During the intense matchup, Khaman Maluach, a former Duke player and lottery pick, found himself entangled in a benches-clearing brawl. The conflict erupted as Maluach battled for position in the paint against Draymond Green, a former Defensive Player of the Year award winner. Maluach managed to get free for a layup, causing Green to fall to the ground. After Maluach went up to complete the layup, Green rose and tackled Maluach to the ground, which triggered a scuffle. Draymond Green was penalized with a double technical foul and was subsequently ejected from the game. Khaman Maluach, who played on the road, did not engage with the media after the game, finishing with five points, two rebounds, one steal, and one block in 13 minutes of action. Phoenix forward Luke Kennard contributed six points from the bench in a loss for the Suns (116-113).",
