Golden State Warriors' Draymond Green 'crossed the line' with late ejection, Steve Kerr says

Golden State Warriors coach Steve Kerr admitted that forward Draymond Green "crossed the line" Saturday night when he was ejected in the final seconds of a 102-100 loss to the Charlotte Hornets.

The wild sequence that led to Green's ejection started with 9.3 seconds left in regulation with the Warriors leading 100-98, when Warriors guard Brad Wanamaker was tied up for a jump ball by Hornets guard LaMelo Ball. After Hornets swingman Gordon Hayward corralled the ball off the tap and fell to the floor, Green appeared to quickly tie Hayward up for a jump ball.
