Nurkic claimed at the time that everyone — even Green — deserves a second chance to learn from their mistakes.
After Saturday’s game, the Suns center no longer felt the same way.
Nurkic was highly critical of Green after the Suns’ 113-112 loss to the Warriors at Chase Center in San Francisco, Calif. The Bosnian big man claimed that Green is still virtually a ticking time bomb that’s bound to explode again in the near future.
“It’s sad. He didn’t learn anything, man,” Nurkic told reporters in the locker room. “It’s just a matter of time he’s going to knock somebody else again. I take everything back that I said. He doesn’t deserve a second chance.”
