There’s drama in the Golden State Warriors camp! Video footage of Draymond Green violently punching his teammate Jordan Poole has surfaced. And it’s NOT pretty. Watch the clip inside…
Tensions came to a head during a recent practice for the Golden State Warriors.
Power forward Draymond Green let his anger get the best of him, which resulted in him physically assaulting his teammate Jordan Poole. Now, there’s video footage of the encounter.
It appears Draymond, 32, and Jordan, 23, were trash talking one another in the footage before Draymond walked over to Jordan and got in his face. Jordan pushed Draymond and next thing you know, Draymond punched him with a right hook in his face, which knocked Jordan down to the ground. Watch the clip (obtained by TMZ) below:

1. That initial reporting looks pretty bad now.
2. This leaking is a bigger story than the punch itself.
3. Holy shit what a punch. https://t.co/jsYcLrgXsb

That Draymond Green situation can’t be “handled internally” anymore. From the video that soon-to-be-fired Warriors employee leaked to TMZ, Draymond brought that punch back from East Oakland. No way was Jordan Poole expecting Draymond to swing on him with that much force & anger.

Ron Adams seeing what’s happening, going over as DG moves toward Poole and sticking his arm out in front of DG after the push, and then putting his hands on his hips after the punch … what a journey. https://t.co/QaRLwSL1dB

According to sources, Draymond and Jordan’s “beef” has been boiling since training camp over contract extensions. It’s reported both Draymond and Jordan are up for contract extensions, and it appears Jordan will receive an extension while Draymond knows he has to play this season out.
According to general manager Bob Myers, Draymond Green was emotional and apologetic to the Golden State Warriors in the locker room yesterday following the physical altercation.
“These things happen. Nobody likes it, we don’t condone it, but it happens,” Bob Myers said. “Draymond apologized to the team. Jordan was there in the room. … As far as any suspension, punishment, fine, we will handle that internally.”
Right now, the Warriors are still in the process of disciplining Green, but Bob Myers said he does not expect him to miss any games due to punishment. Hmm…do you think Draymond Green should miss some games for the physical assault?
EXTRAS:
1. Jake Paul said he’d pay $10 million to get Draymond Green in the boxing ring ASAP. STORY
