After a contentious Suns-Warriors game, Jusuf Nurkic criticized Draymond Green, stating that Green 'didn't learn anything' and 'doesn't deserve a chance' following his 12-game suspension for hitting Nurkic in the face during a game in December. Green responded to the criticism by asserting that 'quiet guys don't win' and implying that his vocal and assertive nature on the court is a key to success. The exchange of fiery comments marks their first matchup since Green's suspension.
