His 3-point shooting percentage might be abysmal, but the chemistry between him, Steph, and Klay makes up for it. Whether it was about Sparty’s 2-3 start to the football season, Green’s impending contract extension, or who should’ve been eliminated from last week’s Great British Bake Off, it’s not going to affect the Warriors’ season. It seemed like the NFL had a fight every other day in training camp, and we all know the story about Michael Jordan sticking Steve Kerr in the face during a heated practice.

Golden State star Draymond Green apologized to his teammates on Thursday, one day after he was involved in a physical altercation with Jordan Poole.

The Warriors are coming off a 2022 NBA title, the fourth championship for Green and first for Poole. Although he didn't elaborate on what caused the altercation, Myers said he doesn't think the fight between Green and Poole "was related to who is getting paid and who isn't."

"It's unfortunate and I'm not going to deny it. "Everybody's fine...Look, it's the NBA - professional sports, these things happen. The people that were reported to be in it, that's accurate," Myers said.

Green is expected to return to practice on Saturday, and the Warriors will handle discipline internally.

"And although that is the least of my worries right now, it has to stay at the forefront, most importantly. Try to keep that as the focus as we move forward." Don't like going through it, but it's part of the NBA and it's part of sports and it's kind of what it is." "Some of it, I would say from my vantage point, I don't feel -- and more importantly you should ask the players that you talk to -- I don't think this was related to who's getting paid and who isn't," Myers said. And the way I was raised, that is simply hating on another man's situation, and that's something that you just don't do. I failed as a man and I failed as a leader. I am very thankful to the Warriors organization for taking it as serious as they have and launching the investigation that they have, because, quite frankly, they don't have to. "There was a report that I was made aware of last night that someone put out there that Jordan had an attitude at camp -- nothing could be further from the truth. "What did I think of the fact of the video leaking?

But also just take a few days, or whatever that is, and just continue to work on myself and think about the things I need to think about, and really just take some time to let everything breathe." "I'm going to take a few days, or, I don't know how many days," Green said.
