The Golden State Warriors, with a 37-34 record entering the game against the Orlando Magic, were fighting to avoid a lower seed in the playoffs and desperately needed the win. Draymond Green's ejection occurred just four minutes into the game after he argued with official Ray Acosta following a foul call on Andrew Wiggins.

Following the incident, an X user decoded Draymond Green's alleged message for Acosta.

"P**sy a** ni***a," Green allegedly said.

The Warriors managed to secure an impressive victory, improving their record to 38-34. This win was crucial for the Warriors, who are fighting to maintain their playoff position.

"I said what I said, I deserved to get kicked out after that point," Green said.

"If I'm all the way honest with y'all, I kinda was trying to turn my body and angle it and go to the bench, I said what I said a little too soon before angling my body to the bench

"It just can't happen. We need to win games. Like I said, not going to overreact. Stuff is never as good as it seems, never as bad as it seems. I know where I am, I understand what I'm doing moving forward. My position, just make sure that that's the exception and not the rule."

Curry came to the fore

Despite facing aggressive defense, particularly from Jalen Suggs, Steph Curry's leadership and clutch performance helped carry the team to victory. In Green's absence, Curry stepped up with 17 points and 10 assists, including a critical three-pointer to secure the win.
