Tempers flared following the Golden State Warriors’ Game 3 victory over the Houston Rockets on Saturday as Draymond Green and Jalen Green found themselves in a heated postgame exchange. A video that quickly went viral on social media captured the Rockets’ guard visibly furious after being provoked by Draymond.
The incident began when Draymond pointed at his nails, seemingly mocking Jalen Green for putting nail paint. Despite Jalen having words for the Warriors veteran, Draymond kept his cool, responding with the playful gesture. The tension escalated when Jalen Green was later seen making a gun gesture in response.
