Golden State Warriors veteran Draymond Green received backlash for calling out New York Knicks All-Star Karl-Anthony Towns, and he just made it worse. After Green bashed Towns for not playing in Tuesday's matchup, he found out the reason why.

However, Green didn't apologize for his actions, per the New York Post's Brian Lewis.

“Oh, man. That's unfortunate. I'm sorry to hear that. That sucks. But my comments that I made was that ‘people I hear was this. And that's what I heard.' So I do send my well wishes to him and his family,” Green said. “You know, none of us. It's inevitable. We all experience death in one way or another, and we'll all experience it in the same way one day. So it's unfortunate. You never with that on anybody, but the Draymond Green Show with Baron Davis must go on.

“So I definitely wish them well and wish their family well. And it's next easy for anyone. But the Draymond Green Show with Baron Davis will go on,” Green concluded.

For Green, the show goes on whether he knew about the death in Towns' family or not. In other words, saying Towns was afraid to see Jimmy Butler still stands. Perhaps this is Green's way of saying that. Draymond's never afraid to speak his mind. After Green commented on Phoenix Suns All-Star Kevin Durant and head coach Mike Budenholzer, it's clear nothing's off the table.

Warriors veteran Draymond Green accused Knicks All-Star Karl-Anthony Towns of avoiding Jimmy Butler in Tuesday's matchup.

In the video clip, Green calls Towns out in an episode of The Draymond Green Show, per X, formerly Twitter.

“Some would say he didn't play because Jimmy was in the building…They said KAT ain't play because Jimmy came into town,” Green said. “Him and Jimmy had the infamous practice in Minnesota.”

Towns was at a friend's funeral that day.
