Draymond Green in hoodie. Draymond choking Gobert

Draymond Green is paying the price for his latest on-court antics. The NBA has suspended Green for five games for putting a chokehold on Rudy Gobert when it was clear that the Minnesota Timberwolves star center was trying to break up a fight between his teammate and Klay Thompson.

Green, who corralled Minnesota center Rudy Gobert and put him into a chokehold after a scuffle broke out between Klay Thompson and Jaden McDaniels, was the only player suspended in the incident.

Gobert, Thompson, and McDaniels were each fined $25,000 since no actual punches were thrown.

The NBA said in its statement that Green’s history played a role in the size of the suspension he’s receiving.

Speaking of his history, some genius on social media created a highlight or possibly a lowlight video of Green’s NBA plays but they only showed his dirty plays.

Green, who has been ejected from 17 games during his career, the most among active players, will miss two games against Oklahoma City, beginning Thursday night, and one each against the Rockets, Suns, and Spurs.

The Warriors, who are already without Stephen Curry at the moment, have lost five of their last six games to fall to 6-6 after a 5-2 start.
