Things between Draymond Green and Jusuf Nurkic are getting heated again, and it’s what Nurkic said in response to Green’s latest comments that has NBA fans fired up.
The Warriors-Suns game earlier this week got tense and Draymond was being his typical self after the Warriors’ win, yelling at people and acting tough.
Following the game, Nurkic said on Green, “It’s sad. He didn’t learn anything. Just a matter of time. He’s going to hit somebody else again. Take back everything I said. He don’t deserve a chance.”
Draymond didn’t take too kindly to this and went on a five minute rant where he flamed Nurkic, calling out his basketball skills and also calling him a coward.
“What a coward,” Green said. “You go questioning character about a basketball game that you just lost, that you got destroyed in… What an embarrassment! And they expect to win with that guy?”
Nurkic saw the rant and responded on X.
All good bad boy just don’t stay to long on podcast, gonna be late for therapy session.😂

Although many people aren’t the biggest fans of Green, it seems as though Nurkic is enemy number one following his response.
This is how NBA fans are reacting to his response.

it’s probably too late to delete this, but you probably shouldn’t use therapy to mock others

Hard to know if Draymond understood the irony of calling Nurkic out on his podcast by saying,” Say it to my face not through the media”.
It looks as though Green won this round.
Let’s hope that we see a Warriors-Suns matchup in the playoffs this season so these two can settle things once and for all.
