"Draymond Green made one appearance and already made the $25k back!": NBA Twitter reacts to the league fining Warriors' star $25,000 over flipping Memphis fans off

NBA Twitter reacts as Warriors’ Draymond Green gets fined $25,000 for flipping the Memphis fans during Game 2

The start to the Memphis-Warriors series hasn’t been too kind to Draymond Green. Green got ejected in the first half of Game 1 for a call that definitely shouldn’t have been a Flagrant 2. Game 2 began with him getting elbowed in the face.

The Memphis crowd was booing Draymond while he was bleeding. This did not sit right with the Warriors star, who decided to respond too.

After the game itself, Draymond knew he was going to get a fine. He even talked about the same, and said he made $25 million a year, a fine won’t hurt him.

NBA Twitter reacts to Draymond Green getting fined $25,000

Around an hour ago, the league officially communicated that they’re fining Draymond Green $25,000 for his actions.

The fine was expected, but it still did not sit right with a lot of people. NBA Twitter had a lot to say about the same.

I’d say the Memphis crowd got off easy for being a sh*tty audience. Cheering on injuries?

Anyway, hopefully, Draymond’s eye is fine, because his pocket is going to be just fine, despite the fine.
