Golden State forward Draymond Green received an indefinite suspension after hitting Jusuf Nurkic in the face and receiving a Flagrant 2 foul, resulting in ejection during the game against the Phoenix Suns.
This marked his 18th career suspension, by far the most of any active player. Gilbert Arenas commented on Green’s actions, drawing a connection between the 4-time NBA champion’s incidents and European players.
“I know what Dray is doing. He’s taking care of these Euros one at a time… The media is trying to push these Euros, and you’re choking and slapping them back. Do your thing,” Arenas said.
Draymont hitting Europeans because they take over the #NBA?

Last season, Green stomped on Domantas Sabonis, then choked Rudy Gobert before finally hitting Nurkic.
“He’s more of a cheap shot guy, but he tends to do that to a lot of Europeans. He’s messing with nothing but foreigners. He had a lot of UFC in him,” Nick Young also gave his two cents on Green’s situation.
