Draymond Green didn’t win Defensive Player of the Year, but he’s quickly emerging as the front-runner for the equally prestigious Flopper of the Year.
Ryan Anderson harmlessly ripped the ball around midway through the second quarter of Game 3 between the Golden State Warriors and New Orleans Pelicans on Thursday, making microscopic contact, if any.
The gust of wind must have been especially strong, though, because Green dropped like he'd been shot.
The referee emphatically called an offensive foul on Anderson, whose New Orleans Pelicans led 44-32 at the time. The power forward looked right up at the video board, knowing that the truth was about to set him free.
