Durant, who finished with a triple double, scoring 33 points, grabbing 11 rebounds and dishing out 10 assists, was apparently upset that Green didn’t give up the ball at the end of regulation with the game tied 106-106.
Kevin Durant recorded his first triple-double of the season (33 PTS, 11 REB, 10 AST) before fouling out in the loss.

Neither player addressed the media after the game, but veteran point guard Shaun Livingston downplayed the heated exchange.
The words between Durant and Green overshadowed the Warriors’ teamwork that allowed them to get back in the game.
Much ado about nothing. Draymond is an agigtator, doesn’t matter what team you’re on for him to get under your skin. Also KD is way too sensitive.
