There’s not much information shed on what exactly took place as of yet, but Green has a reported 10 days to return to East Lansing in order for arraignment to be processed for charge.
The Warriors do know of the news surrounding Green, but aren’t looking to give further statements until more is known in the case. “We are aware of news involving Draymond Green in Michigan over the weekend,” Warriors mentioned in a press release. “At this point, we are collecting information and will have no further comment until we have a better understanding of the situation.”
Lt. Scott Wrigglesworth of the East Lansing Police Department told Brendan F. Quinn of MLive that “the police department is not confirming any arrest with that name [Draymond Green].” However, Scott seemed to throw hints, saying “What I can confirm is that we did arrest a current NBA basketball player this weekend and he was arrested for assault. That’s all we’re confirming right now.”
Green and the Warriors suffered defeat in the NBA Finals to a determined Cleveland Cavaliers team. In game 7 of the finals, Green scored 32 points and added 15 rebounds and nine assists to the stats.
