Earlier this week, Warriors guard Jordan Poole and forward Draymond Green got into a heated argument in practice that ended in a physical altercation between the two champions. TMZ released the video of the fight, which looked a lot worse than what was described in the original report.

After seeing the video, Fournier took to Twitter to share his reaction.

"There is no way you can get back to being teammates after a punch like that," Fournier tweeted.

The Warriors are reportedly considering disciplinary action for Green after his actions, and Golden State might have no choice now that the video of the moment was leaked to the press. It would not be a good PR move to let Green walk away from this scot-free.
