Dillon Brooks gets a technical foul in street clothes against the Warriors
It’s not an NBA game if Dillon Brooks he is not included in any form – even if he is wearing street clothes. The Phoenix Suns visited the Golden State Warriors at the Chase Center on Tuesday, but Brooks sat out the contest with a core injury.
however, Brooks made his presence felt on the bench. But in a bad way. With less than three minutes left in the game and the Warriors leading by just nine points, 114-105, Brooks was whistle for a technical foul after barking at the referees.
Stephen Curry was at the line to shoot two free throws when Brooks was T’d up, prompting a sly laugh from Draymond Green and loud jeers from the fans.
The fact that Brooks was wearing sunglasses just made it all the more, um, surreal?
The 29-year-old forward has embraced being the villain since entering the NBA in 2017. He was traded by the Houston Rockets to the Suns, along with Jalen Green, in the offseason in a seven-team deal for Kevin Durant.
Brooks has played just three games this season due to a core injury, averaging 19.3 points, 3.3 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 2.7 steals in over 30 minutes per game.
The Suns eventually bowed out to the Warriors, 118-107, and fell to 3-5.
Devin Booker led Phoenix with a game-high 38 points on 13-of-24 shooting from the field.
Golden State, which lost Jimmy Butler to a back injury in the first half, led by Curry, who had 28 points, including five 3-pointers. They improved to 5-3 and remained undefeated at home.
