Draymond Green is public enemy number one already in 2022 for what he did to Jordan Poole in practice.
TMZ obtained the footage of Draymond Green punching Jordan Poole at Wednesday’s Warriors practice and it was even worse than previously described. In the video, Green approaches Poole for a confrontation, which forced Poole to push him away.
Green immediately throws a punch that connected with Poole’s face, knocking him against the wall.

At one point during the below video, Sharpe accidentally said, “That’s some bullshit,” before apologizing for cursing.
