NBA executive vice president and head of basketball operations Joe Dumars joined ESPN’s First Take on Thursday to discuss the decision to issue an indefinite suspension for Warriors star Draymond Green.
Dumars made it clear that the league’s goal first and foremost was to get Green the help he needs.
“First of all, we knew there would be some level of punishment,” Dumars said. “But we didn’t want that to be the focus. We wanted the focus to be on how can we help Draymond as well. We thought indefinite was the best way to that.”
