The Minnesota Timberwolves will host the Golden State Warriors for Game 1 of their second-round series on Tuesday. The Timberwolves will look to advance to their second consecutive Western Conference Finals appearance, while the Warriors will look to advance past the second round for the first time since 2022.

Green is among the NBA's most polarizing figures and a frequent lightning rod for postseason controversy. In the first-round series against the Houston Rockets, he racked up four technical fouls and two flagrants, continuing his trend of toeing — and at times crossing — the line of acceptable play.

Wolves fans still resent the way Butler left the franchise and how Green has trash-talked them. Expect vitriol when this series tips off.
