Drafting | 11/15/2023 | NBA
The NBA witnessed another thrilling night of the In-Season Tournament, featuring a series of highly competitive matches. However, one particular game stood out as the highlight of the day, the clash between the Timberwolves and the Warriors. Despite the absence of Stephen Curry due to injury, both teams engaged in a fierce battle right from the start.
During a routine attack by the Golden State Warriors (GSW), a confrontation erupted between Jaden McDaniels and Klay Thompson, which quickly escalated when Draymond Green intervened by grabbing Rudy Gobert by the neck for nearly 10 seconds. This intense fight resulted in the immediate expulsion of the three players just minutes into the game.

After a hard-fought battle, the Timberwolves emerged victorious with a score of 104-101. Rudy Gobert, in an interview with journalist Jon Krawczynski, shared his thoughts on the incident: “Every time Stephen Curry is absent, Draymond doesn’t seem interested in playing. He deliberately behaves in a manner that leads to his expulsion,” stated the Frenchman, who went on to describe Green’s behavior as clownish.
Jaden McDaniels, on the other hand, expressed his desire to distance himself from the altercation, revealing that Klay Thompson was solely responsible for instigating the fight: “I was simply trying to fight for the rebound, and Klay grabbed me by the collar of my shirt. I was just defending myself,” McDaniels explained.
