Golden State Warrior forward Draymond Green held a press conference Saturday to apologize again for punching Jordan Poole at practice and announce he's taking a leave of absence after footage of the incident was leaked.
Green, who did not practice with the team Thursday or Friday, expressed remorse for his actions, saying that he"failed as a leader."
Green also announced that he will be stepping away from the team for a few days after the incident. When Warriors general manager Bob Myers addressed the media on Thursday to discuss the incident, he said that punishment for Green would be handled internally. It's unclear if Green's decision to step away from the team was his decision alone, or if the Warriors also agreed to the idea.
