Woj: Warriors 'Livid' After Draymond Green's Suspension for Foul on Domantas Sabonis

The NBA's decision to suspend Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green for Thursday's Game 3 against the Sacramento Kings reportedly did not sit well with the team.

"Consider the Warriors, in one word, livid," ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski said on Wednesday's episode of Get Up. "They certainly didn't agree with the one-game suspension. I think they were surprised at it, no question about that."

Wojnarowski added that there's no avenue for Golden State to fight the suspension, because "there's really nowhere to go with an appeal in these situations."

The league announced late on Tuesday night that Green had been suspended for stamping on the chest of Kings star Domantas Sabonis and the decision "was based in part on Green's history of unsportsmanlike acts."

The incident occurred in the fourth quarter of Monday's Game 2 when Sabonis fell to the ground and grabbed Green's leg, and Green stamped on him after getting his leg free. Sabonis is listed as questionable for Thursday's game because of a sternum contusion.

Green received a flagrant 2 foul and was ejected from Monday's game, so it was reported that there was an expectation he'd only face a fine for his actions. However, he antagonized the Sacramento fans prior to his ejection, and Wojnarowski pointed out that his lack of remorse likely played a factor in his suspension.

"It would be important that you do [express remorse] when they are deciding on whether it's perhaps just a fine and you play Game 3, vs. a suspension," Wojnarowski stated. "But you look at on the court with Draymond Green before he left the floor, that was absolutely a part of this decision, I'm told."

The defending-champion Warriors will look to avoid falling into a 0-3 hole on Thursday, a tough task without one of their top players available.
