As part of his suspension for accumulating another flagrant 1 foul in the playoffs, Draymond Green will not be allowed to attend Game 5 of the NBA Finals between his Golden State Warriors and the Cleveland Cavaliers on Monday at Oracle Arena. This is somewhat controversial because the Warriors lead the series 3-1 and could end up clinching the title that night, which would prevent him from celebrating with his teammates. That’s obviously not something the league intends to be a consequence, so it looks like there will be a compromise.
According to one report, the Warriors forward would be allowed to attend the celebration if the Warriors do clinch the championship.
Draymond Green won't be allowed to attend the game, but I'm told he would be granted access inside Oracle should Warriors win on Monday.

Even though Green’s suspension by the league is certainly justified given all he has done throughout the postseason, preventing him from celebrating with his teammates when he was a big part of their success would not be right.
