Jordan Poole appeared to throw shade at Draymond Green when he told reporters that he loved most of his former Golden State Warriors teammates following his return to the Bay Area last Saturday.

Green promptly responded on social media and expanded on his apology Wednesday in the latest episode of "The Draymond Green Show with Baron Davis."

"I responded because it's been three years, Like, let's move on. We've moved on, I really am sorry," Green said. "That statement was kind of like it was looking for some sympathy ... kind of keep wanting to make me out to be the bad guy. Move on, bro. It is what it is.

"I'm sorry. I shouldn't have punched him. But, you know, it happened. Let's move on."

Green and Poole were teammates from 2019-23. They were involved in a heated altercation during a preseason practice in October 2022.

The pair reportedly exchanged words and got into a shoving match before the four-time All-Star punched the current Washington Wizards guard.

Green was fined by the Warriors for his actions but avoided a suspension from the league.

The incident apparently created tension within the club. Golden State dealt Poole to the Wizards that offseason in the Chris Paul trade.

Green added that he still goes back and forth on what went down with Poole, but he also recognizes that his ex-teammate had a role in how he reacted.

"I know I was wrong, but you can't call a man a B-word and push him and not get hit, either," he said. "So, I kind of sit in both of those spaces sometimes. Like, the reality is, the answer is probably somewhere in the middle, right? I shouldn't have knocked him out like that. If anything, I should have hemmed him up. It kind of was just a natural reaction."

Green added: "I think, for him, you are kind of bringing that back up on yourself. Like when you do that, you just bring back that moment up on yourself. You just got to move on and just keep it pushing, man. Got to let it go."
