Steve Kerr Says Draymond Green’s Ban ‘Makes Sense,’ Hoping It Changes Star

Steve Kerr apparently sees no points with the NBA’s option to hit Draymond Green with an indefinite ban this week … saying Thursday his star participant’s latest conduct simply wants to alter.

The Warriors head coach opened up on the suspension that Adam Silver levied on his star participant earlier this week — and he made it clear, he is in favor of the prolonged timeout.

“The one who choked Rudy [Gobert], the one who took a wild flail at Jusuf [Nurkic], the one who punched Jordan [Poole] last year — that’s the guy who has to change,” Kerr stated.

“You look at the past year and what’s happened,” the coach continued, “it’s clear he needs the opportunity to change.”

Kerr defined to media members that for a lot of Green’s profession, he is not had points with the facility ahead … saying he believes most of Draymond’s outbursts previous to 2022 included tolerable yelling at refs or innocuous ball throwing.

Nonetheless, Kerr stated the conduct he is displayed within the final 12 months — which most just lately included taking a swipe at Jusuf Nurkic‘s face throughout an altercation in Tuesday night time’s Warriors vs. Suns sport — simply can’t proceed.

“To me, this is about more than basketball,” Kerr stated. “It’s about helping Draymond. I think it’s an opportunity for Draymond to step away and to make a change in his approach and his life.”
