The NBA world is still talking about a very controversial and startling moment from Monday night’s game between the Golden State Warriors and Sacramento Kings.
When Kings big man Domantas Sabonis fell to the ground and held onto Draymond Green’s leg, few people expected Green to respond by stomping on his chest.
Green was ejected, Sabonis received a foul, and everyone is debating who was right and who was wrong.
Obviously, Sabonis felt upset about how it all went down and spoke about it following the game.
“When I fell, I was protecting myself, and then the incident happened. There is no room for that in our game today,” Sabonis said.

The good news with this situation is that Sabonis was not too badly hurt by Green.
If Green had been more zealous with his actions, this could have been a very different story.
It’s unlikely that the league will do anything else about Green’s foul.
He was ejected, the Kings won, and the league is ready to move on.
But it definitely does make one wonder what will happen in Game 3 between these two teams.
The third game in the series will be held in San Francisco and the crowd is going to be very supportive of Green.
Sabonis should be prepared for a shower of boos from the Golden State fans.
When Sabonis and Green match up again in the next game, everyone will be expecting fireworks.
Will we see them battle it out again?
Is another ejection on the horizon?
Or will these two titans of the game play it cool and keep it cordial with so much on the line and such an ugly rivalry brewing?
