NBA Fines Draymond Green For Interaction With Fan

Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green has been fined $25,000

The NBA announced on Thursday evening that Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green had been fined $25,000 for directing obscene language at a fan. The incident occurred with 11:20 remaining in the fourth quarter of Golden State's loss to the Mavericks on Tuesday.

Green is no stranger to disciplinary action from the league, and is always amongst the top recipients of technical fouls and fines each season. It is unclear what the fan said to Draymond that caused him to react in a way the league deemed inappropriate, but he has now been fined $25,000.

The Warriors lost that game against the Mavericks, but had an opportunity to steal one on the road. The team has struggled mightily away from home this season, which is primarily why they have struggled to climb up the standings. The Warriors of course expect to compete for another championship this season, but they will have to sort out their road woes before the Western Conference begins creating some more separation between the top teams and everyone else.

The West has been very mediocre this year, with the Warriors being no exception. Dominant at home, the team has really struggled on the road, dropping another away game to Dallas on Tuesday. Not only will the team head back to Golden State with another loss, but their defensive anchor Draymond Green will be $25,000 lighter in the pocket for his interaction with a fan.
