Meet the new punishment, same as the old punishment.
As much as the leaked video of Draymond Green punching Jordan Poole probably helped the Warriors in the long term, it also put the front office in a sticky spot in the short term. The video made it clear that their initial punishment of a day or two away from practice, plus a fine, was insufficient. But upping the punishment would look weak, like they were reacting to the video going public when they already should have had all the information they needed.
So Green took a slightly longer break from the team — mutually agreed upon, not a suspension, coach Steve Kerr made sure to say.
