There is clearly some bad blood between Draymond Green and Karl-Anthony Towns. Last time their teams faced each other, Towns did not suit up due to personal reasons. And the Warriors star made some controversial comments on his absence without proof, “Some would say he didn’t play because Jimmy was in the building, I don’t know… Yeah, they said KAT ain’t played because Jimmy came into town and you know him and Jimmy had the infamous practice in Minnesota. That’s a thing. I don’t know.”
Turns out, that was not the case and KAT reportedly took time off to comfort his girlfriend Jordyn Woods after she lost her aunt to cancer. Looks like Draymond’s public comments have spiced up his beef with Towns even more as the two stars got into a heated verbal altercation during tonight’s Knicks vs Warriors.
The incident occurred in the opening minutes of second quarter. With the two players tangled up during a play, Draymond managed to draw a foul on KAT. Adding insult to injury, the former DPOY immediately began taunting Towns by pointing toward the bench, realizing that it was his third personal foul and he would be subbed out. Obviously, the Knicks Center was not pleased with Green’s antics and charged toward him with some heated words. That sparked a verbal altercation between the two and their teammates and officials were forced to step in to separate them.

Even on-air announcer, Doris Burke realized that there was more to this than just on court issues, as she said, “This feels personal.” Meanwhile, her colleague Richard Jefferson added, “Draymond is a master at trying to get into people’s head. Agitating people… Do not engage with Draymond. That is my opinion from being his teammate and playing against him.”
