This is Green’s fifth suspension in his career. 

Prior to this week’s punishment, he was suspended for one game without pay.

He stamped on the chest of Sacramento Kings’ Domantas Sabonis in April 2023.

Green’s next chance to appear in a game will be on Nov 29 at the Sacramento Kings.

The 33-year-old Green’s salary this season is $22.3M and his net worth is $60M in 2023.
