Draymond Green fined for ‘inappropriate comment’ questioning integrity of refs
- The NBA has imposed a $50,000 fine on Warriors forward Draymond Green for making an inappropriate remark during Game 3 of their playoff series against Minnesota.
- Green made the remark while informing teammates about the point spread during a live broadcast, an act the NBA said undermined confidence in the game officials.
- The Timberwolves secured a 102-97 win in that game, during which Green was disqualified in the fourth quarter; he currently leads the league in the postseason with five technical fouls and has also been assessed two flagrant fouls.
- Green, aged 35, has been fined 229 times since 2012, totaling $992,000 in fines, including $185,000 for actions toward officials according to Spotrac.
- This fine adds to Green’s disciplinary record and suggests increased scrutiny on gambling-related comments amid the NBA’s partnership with DraftKings and ongoing investigations into other players.
