Golden State Warriors star Draymond Green was ejected at the end of Game 2 after getting involved in a dispute with Domantas Sabonis and stomping on the Sacramento Kings’ long man.
Early in the fourth quarter, the two became entangled while several players were fighting for rebounds. Sabonis was pushed by Klay Thompson and fell close to Green. The Kings center ended up grabbing Dray’s legs, which the Warriors veteran certainly did not appreciate.
As Green tried to get out of it, however, he pulled his leg and started stomping on Sabonis’ chest before jumping. The Kings All-Star squirmed in pain and was on the floor for a long time.
After reviewing the incident, Green received a Flagrant 2, which warrants an automatic ejection. Sabonis was also given a technical foul for grabbing Green’s legs..
