According to Wojnarowski, Sabonis underwent X-rays on his ribs and lungs, and they returned negative.
After the Warriors grabbed the rebound, Green was about to run to the offense with the rest of the team, but Sabonis stayed on the ground. Green raised his foot, stomped on Sabonis, and jumped over Kings star.
After the review, NBA referees issued Green a Flagrant 2 foul, which resulted in an ejection.
Green finished the game with 8 points (2/4 2PT, 1/2 3PT, 1/2 FT), 4 rebounds, 5 assists, 1 steal, and 5 turnovers.
"It's playoffs basketball," Sabonis said about an altercation with Green. "Look at the fans, this is it. Every time we step on the floor, we gonna give everything for our teammates and franchise."
Sabonis was able to continue to play after catching his breath in a couple of minutes time.
"We both were fighting for a rebound. We fouled each other. Stuff happens. We gotta move on, stuff happens," Sabonis added.
In a 114-106 Kings win, Sabonis finished the game with 24 points (8/12 2PT, 8/12 FT), 9 rebounds, 4 assists, and 3 turnovers.
