“We speak by message. But we’re giving him his space, and he’s giving us space, ours. He was not on the premises, at least with us. He could have come alone,” said Golden State Warriors coach Steve Kerr during the press conference.

The coach’s response denies the speculation published by ESPN journalist, Adrian Wojnarowski, who stated that the athlete’s suspension time would be estimated at a total of 11 to 13 games. If the statement were correct, Draymond Green would return to the court in the match against the Detroit Pistons and New Orleans Pelicans.
The decision applied by the NBA on the player was due to numerous aggressive actions, but mainly due to the action taken against Jusuf Nurkic in the match against the Phoenix Suns, on Tuesday (12). However, this is not the first punishment the athlete has received, at the beginning of the season, Draymond Green applied a rear naked choke to Rudy Gobert while playing against the Minnesota Timberwolves.
The indefinite suspension advises that the player receives advice regarding his actions. Steve Kerr stated that the Golden State Warriors organization will support the athlete in any necessary measure and, even away from the team, will have programs to continue physical performance and reinforce his mental health.
