In the viral video that is still surfacing on social media Thompson and McDaniels started pulling and shoving each other while going up the court and then Rudy Gobert hopped in which led Draymond to run over and put Gobert in a chokehold! Now Gobert is speaking on the situation and referring to Draymond’s actions as “clown behavior.” In a new interview with The Athletic, Gobert shared, “It’s kind of funny because before the game, I was telling myself that Steph (Curry) is not playing, so I know Draymond is going to try and get ejected,” Gobert said.
“Because every time Steph doesn’t play, he doesn’t want to play, it’s his guy Steph. He’ll do anything he can to get ejected,” Gobert continued. “I’m proud of myself for being the bigger man again and again. And yeah, he doesn’t even deserve me putting my hands on him. My team needed me tonight,” Gobert added. “I did whatever I could to keep my cool and then show that I wasn’t making the situation worse, and I do hope that the league is going to do what needs to be done because that’s just clown behavior. Not much to say. It’s clown behavior.”
Now this isn’t the first time Draymond has been seen putting his hands on people! As we previously reported, Shocking video was leaked of Draymond Green violently attacking his teammate Jordan Poole, viciously punching him to the ground right in the middle of a team practice.
Green walked up to Poole and gets in his face. Poole pushes Green away with 2 hands to the chest. Green, who is 6’6″ and 230 lbs, responds with a vicious right cross to the face … so ferocious, it knocked Poole to the ground!
