The fan was ejected after Green and the officer spoke. The official spoke to his colleagues and had the person ejected. Green told reporters that the fan said “some threatening things to my life.”
“I was so close to going back and diving all the way, but I just went back and told the officer. And when I told the officer, he said, ‘You’ve got to get out of here,'” the Warriors star said. .

WARNING: STRONG LANGUAGE
“There’s no real consequences. Yeah, you can’t get back in the game, or even if you get stopped, nothing really happens,” Green added, via ESPN. “You just hope it gets to the point where these leagues can work with lawmakers to implement laws, because that’s the only thing that’s going to finally correct the problem, is if you know something real is going to happen to you.”
The Bucks said they were investigating the incident and consulting with the NBA.
“At the referee’s discretion, we are investigating the situation and are consulting with the NBA,” the team said.
