Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green danced for joy as Memphis Grizzlies forward Santi Aldama missed two technical free throws during Monday night's NBA game at the Chase Center.
It happened with 3:48 remaining in the third quarter as the Warriors held a 91-78 lead. After turning the ball over at midcourt, Green chased down Aldama and prevented him from a breakaway dunk by tackling him from behind by his neck. Green was called for a flagrant 1 technical foul, to which his response to the officials was "That's soft as f***."
As it turns out, Green's foul did not hurt the Warriors as Aldama missed both technical free throws. After the second one, Green skipped around the court to celebrate.

Green is known for his over-the-top fouls and mocking opponents, so this is perfectly on brand for him.
