Draymond Green starts counseling, expected to remain sidelined for at least three weeks
Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green has started counseling and is expected to remain sidelined via suspension for at least the next three weeks, league sources said. The NBA announced an indefinite suspension for Green on Dec. 13 for striking Phoenix Suns center Jusuf Nurkić in the face during a game one night earlier. Joe Dumars, NBA executive vice president and head of basketball operations, said in a statement that Green’s “repeated history of unsportsmanlike acts” was a factor in the decision.

More on this storyline
Chris Haynes: “I was told that Draymond Green will still be allowed to practice with the Warriors during this time. Will the Warriors say ‘No Draymond, stay away, go get go get your work done first’? I don’t know. I don’t think Steve Kerr has addressed that but I don’t know. Stein, it’s a puzzle a little bit.” -via Apple Podcasts / December 18, 2023
League sources said the 33-year-old was expected to receive counseling and work with the Warriors and NBA while suspended. People around Green and the organization said the four-time NBA champion has been understanding and prepared to undergo the process required to return to the team in a full capacity. Those sources would not reveal the specifics of Green’s counseling out of respect for his privacy. -via The Athletic / December 18, 2023
At 2:30 p.m. ET on ABC and ESPN, the defending-champion Nuggets will face a Warriors team, presumably still without the indefinitely suspended Draymond Green, in a game announced by Ryan Ruocco, Richard Jefferson and JJ Redick, with Katie George as sideline reporter. -via New York Post / December 18, 2023
