After Draymond Green’s Game 5 suspension for going over the flagrant foul limit in the playoffs, some Warriors’ faithful and former players were outraged by the decision, claiming that LeBron James started it by stepping over Draymond first.

Now another former Warriors’ player has taken to social media to fight for Draymond.

Former Warrior Stephen Jackson recently posted a video to Instagram to declare his support for Green and that he’ll be wearing Green’s jersey to Game 5 because he “loves the bad guys.”

Game 5 begins Monday night at 9pm (EST). Expect Warriors’ fans to be extra loud whenever LeBron gets the ball.
