The altercation between Jordan Poole and Draymond Green was an important part of the Golden State Warriors 2022-23 season, as everybody blamed that situation for their inconsistency.
A lot has been said about that infamous moment in training camp, but things cooled off a little during the season. Now that the campaign ended with a 2-4 loss to the Los Angeles Lakers on Friday night, people are talking about the punch once again.
Moreover, a report claims that the real reason behind the punch was that Jordan Poole had gotten a different attitude towards everybody, didn’t listen to others and even was disrespectful to Steve Kerr.
“Apparently Draymond Green punched Jordan Poole before the season because Jordan Poole wasn’t listening to, and was being disrespectful to Steve Kerr. He said there is more involved than that but that’s the immediate reason Draymond responded the way he did.”

Of course, this is a serious matter and none of this has been confirmed or at least reported by another insider. However, it’s interesting to know that during that time, Poole raised many eyebrows within the Warriors organization, with Klay Thompson even rubbing a win in a 3-point contest in his face.
The way the Warriors and any other franchise manage their issues will make it hard to know more than this, but if true, Poole won’t be anybody’s favorite around Dubs Nation.
Jordan Poole Breaks Silence On Infamous Draymond Green Punch
The guard himself spoke about this situation, explaining how it all affected the Warriors all season long. He said that they all needed more maturity to enter a season in which he’ll be seeing Green all the time after their incident.
Some say this was the reason why the Warriors struggled so much on the road. This offseason can present big changes for the Dubs, and maybe Poole is one of those.
