Draymond Green Causes Fight With Grizzlies Players, Knocks Memphis Coach To Ground
Draymond Green was at the center of another fight on Wednesday, involving shoving between players and Green knocking over Memphis Grizzlies coach Taylor Jenkins.
Despite all the suspensions the NBA tries to throw at Green, the Warriors madman can't keep his cool.
Wednesday night's game against the Grizzlies took a turn in the second quarter when Green got tied up with Memphis' Santi Aldama.

Green reached out to grab Aldama by the jersey, and during a break, Grizzlies coach Taylor Jenkins complained to the ref concerning Draymond's signature bullying.
Draymond crowded Jenkins as the coach spoke with the referee, prompting Memphis' Desmond Bane to rush over and get in a shoving match with Draymond and Gary Payton II.
In the crowd of players, Green and Payton took a spill, which bull-dozed Jenkins on the way down.
The coach grimaced after standing up from the tumble. OutKick favorite Ja Morant even made a brief cameo in the bench-clearing spat.

Green and Bane were issued technical fouls. They eventually shook hands.
This season, Green's been disciplined for putting an opponent in a headlock and smacking Jusuf Nurkic's face during a game.
Last postseason, Draymond served a suspension for stomping on Domantas Sabonis' chest.
As OutKick wrote in February, Green has shown he's willing to revert to his bull-headed behavior.
Fans assumed Green's two suspensions this season would deter such behavior. In Green's case, it's only a matter of time before he serves his next suspension.
Golden State defeated the Memphis Grizzlies, 137-116.
