The Golden State Warriors received a brief sense of accomplishment as the organization registered a stunning win over the Atlanta Hawks.
However, in their most recent game against the Sacramento Kings, the Warriors suffered a 133-134 defeat after a close game.
Speaking of that matchup, a controversial incident took place involving Draymond Green and Malik Monk.
It was a rare moment when Green was not the player who committed arguably a hard foul on the opposing player.
In fact, Green was on the receiving end of a controversial foul by Malik Monk.
Green responded to the viral clip via his official Twitter handle where Monk went over his head in hopes of blocking a shot, which was called a common foul on the Kings guard.
“A game?” Green tweeted.

Green had a two-word response to the controversial call by the referees.
To be honest, if the roles were reversed, Green may have received a technical foul or even a suspension.
But Monk got away with a common foul call.
A key reason behind the call by the referees was undoubtedly Green’s poor reputation.
After all, the four-time NBA champion recently came back after serving an indefinite suspension for his several altercations earlier this season.
Speaking of Green’s performance, he contributed 5 points, 4 rebounds, and 11 assists to the Warriors in 31 minutes of playing time off the bench.
Considering Green is still finding his form after being sidelined for a plethora of games due to suspension, it was an acceptable performance by the veteran forward.
