Draymond Green gets last laugh over Suns player he hit in face after their playoff elimination: 'Big Softie'

Jusuf Nurkic mocked the Warriors after they were eliminated from playoff contention, but Draymond Green held that in his back pocket and got the last laugh.

The bad blood between Draymond Green and Jusuf Nurkic continues, even when both of their seasons are over. It all started when Green, now notoriously, hit Nurkic in the face earlier this season after wildly flailing his arms during a game. That incident was the tipping point for the NBA to suspend him indefinitely, as he had been involved in other dangerous altercations recently.

Well, after the Warriors were eliminated from playoff contention after their loss in the play-in tournament, Nurkic posted on X, formerly Twitter, a gif of the infamous 'That's all folks' graphic from 'Looney Tunes.' Green kept that in his back pocket and pounced when Nurkic's Phoenix Suns were swept by the Minnesota Timberwolves in the first round. 'Ironically, the tweet may may have spoiled faster from the ‘Big Softie,'' Green said on his podcast on Monday.

Nurkic averaged 7.4 points and 7.6 rebounds in the five-game series. Follow Fox News Digital’s sports coverage on X, and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.
