(New York, NY) — The NBA world was shocked by a video that was leaked earlier this year of Draymond Green punching Warriors teammate Jordan Poole during a heated moment of practice.
Green still doesn’t know who did it, and he never wanted to know.
“I was never really given a concrete answer on how it came about but anything else that gets investigated, you get to concrete things, right?” Green asked while appearing #thisleague UNCUT with Chris Haynes and Marc Stein.
“I didn’t want to get to the bottom of it. I didn’t want to chase ‘oh man, who leaked this? Is there a way for me to find out where this leak came from?’ If I do find out what I’m going to do? Am I going to sue someone?”
The punch happened during the preseason in October. Green was fined but not suspended, and he’s ultimately moved on.
“The reality is I did it and you have to face the music, man. I’m not about to get so deep into trying to find out who leaked it that it almost appears as I’m not willing to face the music or something.”
