Draymond Green’s notorious kicking habit is far from a victimless crime, and Suns rookie Marquese Chriss will be one of the first ones to tell you that much.
Chriss showed off his swollen right pinky finger on Monday, two days after getting kicked by Green on Saturday, per Paul Coro of the Arizona Republic.

The 19-year-old big man was on the receiving end of the latest of Green’s karate aspirations in the third quarter of Phoenix’s eventual 138-109 loss to the Warriors at Oracle Arena.

Green’s flailing limbs have recently found themselves in the news yet again after he kicked Rockets guard James Harden in the head during Golden State’s loss to Houston on Thursday, just two days before the Chriss incident. A dangerous act that has no place at any level of basketball, Green’s rampant kicking habit will only serve to create more backlash the longer he keeps it up and the more victims he claims with it.
