Warriors Edge Knicks as Draymond Green and Karl-Anthony Towns Clash Intensifies

Draymond Green's late-game heroics and ongoing feud with Karl-Anthony Towns highlight Golden State's 97-94 victory over New York.

Draymond Green sealed the Warriors' seventh straight win with a decisive layup in the final 25 seconds and celebrated with Stephen Curry's signature 'night-night' gesture.
Karl-Anthony Towns led the Knicks with 29 points and 12 rebounds but fouled out with 6.1 seconds remaining, missing the chance to close out the game.
Tensions between Green and Towns boiled over during the second quarter, with a verbal altercation following Green's taunts after drawing a foul on Towns.
Green faced criticism for earlier comments suggesting Towns avoided a previous matchup due to Jimmy Butler's presence, though Towns was attending a funeral at the time.
The Knicks, missing key player Jalen Brunson, struggled in the final minutes, with internal frustrations evident, including a heated exchange between Josh Hart and coach Tom Thibodeau.
