Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green has apologized for punching his teammate, Jordan Poole, at practice on Wednesday, said team general manager Bob Myers. 

While Golden State is expected to hand down discipline to Green, he is not expected to miss any games over the punch.

"He will tell you he has been over that line but he always comes back," Myers said. "Nobody is saying they don't want him around ... but [Wednesday] was not a good moment. ... I don't think he likes putting himself in these spots. He is in one, but I think he'll find a way to earn the respect of his teammates and Jordan back."

Video of the altercation, obtained by TMZ Sports, shows Green throwing the punch. 

There were reports that Poole’s attitude during training camp led to the altercation, a report that head coach Steve Kerr shot down.
