In this story:

Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert was seen throwing a punch at teammate Kyle Anderson during Sunday afternoon's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. Gobert was sent home, and did not play the rest of the game. Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green tweeted out something very interesting following the game, that seems to be a direct shot at Gobert:

When Green punched Jordan Poole before the season began, Gobert tweeted those exact same words, which seemed to be in reference to Green's actions:

Green has made comments about Gobert in the past, and there has always been a level of tension between the two defensive anchors. Fans immediately recognized what Green was referencing with his tweet, as it was identical to what Gobert said several months ago. 

The Warriors picked up a big win against the Portland Trail Blazers on Sunday afternoon, securing their place in the playoffs, and clinching a date with the Sacramento Kings. The Timberwolves were also able to grab a win despite this mid-game fight, defeating the New Orleans Pelicans. 

There were big games around the NBA all afternoon, several of which came down to the wire. Never afraid to speak his mind, Draymond Green made sure to say his piece on Rudy Gobert attempting to punch his teammate Kyle Anderson during Sunday afternoon's game against the New Orleans Pelicans.
