Draymond Green just broke the internet. The NBA world is well aware of the fallout between Jordan Poole and Green while they were at the Warriors. Back in 2022, during a practice session, Green punched Poole right in the face, which riled up the internet significantly. While Poole was traded to the Washington Wizards, recent remarks from the duo have the hoops community hyped up once again.
In their recent faceoff with the Wizards, the Warriors triumphed over Poole’s side 122-114. However, it was Poole’s words after the game that gave the entire story an emotional narrative. Speaking about his Warriors’ teammates, the 25-year-old said, “I love those guys over there… I love most of those guys over there.”
This statement, surprisingly, prompted a response out of Draymond Green too. In an unexpected move, Green replied, “I am sorry.”
I really am sorry
