Stephen Curry scores 34 points as Warriors hold off Suns 116-113 in testy game with three technicals
Stephen Curry scored 34 points as Golden State overcame Draymond Green’s ejection and three technical fouls for its fifth straight win.
- On Monday, Golden State Warriors center Draymond Green was ejected during the third quarter against the Phoenix Suns after tackling center Khaman Maluach and grabbing forward Dillon Brooks. Officials assessed two technical fouls, triggering automatic disqualification.
- Longtime rivals Green and Brooks share a documented history of on-court confrontations and trash-talking. This ejection marked the 23rd of Green's 15-year career, reflecting a reputation for defensive intensity and repeated unsportsmanlike conduct.
- Green recorded four points, four rebounds, and two assists in 16 minutes before departing. The Warriors, playing without Stephen Curry, fell to the Suns 111-96 as Phoenix capitalized on the disruption.
- Officials also issued a technical foul to Brooks for his role in the dust-up, which required teammates and staff to intervene. The heated exchange occurred while Phoenix held an eight-point lead midway through the third quarter.
- This latest ejection revives scrutiny of Green's history, which includes past suspensions involving Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert and Phoenix center Jusuf Nurkic. The two teams meet again on Dec. 28.
