Forward Kelly Oubre Jr. of the Washington Wizards has been suspended for Sunday's Game 4 against the Boston Celtics after being ejected for knocking a player to the floor, the National Basketball Association announced on Saturday.
Green's comments came after Olynyk received national attention last week for a run-in with Washington forward Kelly Oubre Jr. Like, c'mon man. Kelly Oubre hit (referee) Monty McCutchen harder than he hit Olynyk! Olynyk was whistled for an illegal high screen that knocked Oubre to the floor.
Washington blew early double-digit leads in Games 1 and 2, but it maintained its toughness and intensity in the same game Oubre went Daz Dillinger on Olynyk. There's no love lost between the Wizards and Celtics, and the Oubre-Olynyk incident was the height of the physicality Thursday.
On a different occasion, after being stepped over by LeBron James in the 2016 Finals, Green reached up his right arm while he was getting up off the court and collided with James' groin. Brooks said, before shrugging. I don't know who taught them how to kick if they're kicking with their shin.
So what if Oubre is averaging just 6.3 points per game in the playoffs? The screens we've been setting, especially in the backcourt, for the most part I feel like they've been legal.

Waycott said the French museum employees were "very unhappy" with the loss of their collection. The specimens had been sent to Australia through New Zealand Post for research there.
"One, I think we've got to control our emotions". He's more into the in-your-face brand of physicality that gets you suspended for a game.
Brooks could find more minutes for Bojan Bogdanovic after the sharp-shooting forward scored 19 points in the Wizards' 116-89 victory in Game 3. "It's about playing for each other and we've been doing that all year. I just want him to focus on that". Kelly just stayed back.
The match-up between the Boston Celtics and Washington Wizards, a budding rivalry that has been building over the last couple seasons, has been the exception. When things get out of hand however, it hurt teams as the Wizards as finding out now. During a conference call, Celtics coach Brad Stevens was asked if his players had moved on from the dustup.
Wall's backup, Brandon Jennings, made sure he kept pushing, as he got into a spat with Celtics reserve point guard Terry Rozier that ended with both men being ejected on double technicals in the fourth quarter.
Forward Markieff Morris didn't even consider Washington's Game 3 win against the Boston Celtics on Thursday night terribly physical despite eight technical fouls and three ejections.
