The referees whistled Green just three minutes from the first quarter after committing a fault on the Rockets goalkeeper Jalen Green. The quadruple NBA champion tried to adjust a screen for Steph Curry when he mixed with the green of the Rockets.
The video reruns seemed to show the star of the Warriors in contact with Green’s head when he was trying to be untangled by the guard of the rockets. The green of Golden State pleaded his file with referees after hearing the whistle, but the officials quickly evaluated the Warriors forward with an offensive fault.
After an exam, the officials determined that the offensive fault should be changed in a blatant fault.

The two players also had a heated exchange earlier in the series. A few moments after the Warriors won a 104-93 victory in match 3, Draymond seemed to taunt Jalen. Other warriors and rocket players finally intervened.
Draymond finished the match with 7 points and went 0-4 beyond the three-point line. Green de Houston underlined the long-standing performance of match 3 of the longtime warriors star in an post-match press conference.

“I’m just talking about,” said Jalen Green in reference to the heated time. “He can’t really do much else, so talking is his only way.”
Draymond was also evaluated a blatant fault in match 4 of the series after riding Tari Eason and seemed to kick a kick.
Match 7 will be played on Sunday evening in Houston.
