Draymond Green was issued a technical foul during the second quarter of Thursday's clash against the Minnesota Timberwolves after he hit Naz Reid in the face with his arm while attempting to make a pass.

According to former NBA guard Jay Williams, Minnesota should take Golden State seriously. Like a wounded animal backed into a corner, the Warriors will come out swinging and Williams said all they need is one win to buy Curry time to return to action and possibly help the Dubs get back on track.

STEPHEN CURRY HAD just found Draymond Green open on the wing for a 3-pointer, giving the Golden State Warriors a 30-20 lead Tuesday night in the second quarter of Game 1 and forcing the Minnesota Timberwolves to call a timeout.
