The Golden State Warriors started strong with a first-half lead in their game against the Phoenix Suns, but a series of struggles led to a disappointing loss. The team's veterans, particularly Andrew Wiggins, had a tough game, leading to Coach Steve Kerr's decision to opt for younger players. Draymond Green's ejection, following a flagrant foul on Jusuf Nurkić, has led to speculation about a potential suspension. Nurkić's reaction to the foul and Green's subsequent apology have added to the post-game discussions.

The Warriors could again be missing their best defender and emotional engine. Another Draymond Green suspension is likely on the way. His absence has been a killer for a team that can’t get any sustained rhythm, @anthonyVslater writes. The impact ⤵️ https://t.co/za9L8nhkax
Draymond Green apologized to Jusuf Nurkić for clocking him during tonight’s Warriors-Suns game, but that’s not gonna be enough for the NBA. How long do we think the suspension will be this time? https://t.co/Jq0TUgJfdn

A potential turning point night for the Warriors with Steve Kerr choosing to close with the youth over Klay Thompson, Andrew Wiggins, and Kevon Looney. The veterans continue to struggle and Kerr has a lot of rotation questions to figure out. https://t.co/W3vbwwXjW0
Warriors are a frustrating watch right now. My goodness.
Another nightmare road night for the Warriors. Blew a double digit lead again. Draymond Green ejected. Andrew Wiggins, Kevon Looney, Klay Thompson all didn't close because of continued struggle. Youth played well, but GSW lost in Phoenix. Steve Kerr's rotation questions increase.
Draymond green is so unhinged bro
More Draymond chum. https://t.co/G9FwBgU4OI

Warriors up three at the half in Phoenix. Steve Kerr slowly readjusting his rotation as the same trends continue. Wiggins limited to 10 first half minutes (he was -16) and Looney 8 minutes while Kuminga (+16) and Paul (+14) both played 14 off the bench.
