Patrick Beverley and Steph Curry were hit with double technical fouls during the first quarter of Game 1 in the Houston Rockets-Golden State Warriors playoff game on Saturday after getting into it.
Curry was annoyed with Beverley reaching in on him on defense and after play, and the two got tangled up after a whistle. They ended up being called for double technicals.

Possibly in defense of his teammate, Draymond Green then stepped in and laid out Beverley with a screen on the following play:

It’s no surprise Curry and Beverley got into it; Beverley is well known for being a thorny player and getting on opponents’ nerves.
