The Golden State Warriors entered Wednesday’s contest against the Orlando Magic down one key player after Jonathan Kuminga was ruled out due to a knee injury. The Dubs have now lost another star so early on in the game after Draymond Green got himself ejected less than four minutes into the first quarter.
Dubs talisman Stephen Curry could not hide his frustration.
Golden State Warriors Star Stephen Curry Reacts to Draymond Green Ejection
Curry stood right beside Green as the latter argued his case to the referee. You can clearly see Steph doing all he can to keep the situation at bay. This is far from Draymond’s first dance, and Curry knew that his teammate was treading in dangerous waters:

Curry couldn’t do anything, though, as Green just refused to let up. It wasn’t long before the former Defensive Player of the Year picked up his second technical foul, leading to an extremely early shower.
Shortly after the ejection, Curry was seen on camera shaking his head in frustration after watching Green get himself tossed from the game. Head coach Steve Kerr even had to console the Warriors talisman a bit:

The Warriors are in an extremely tight race in the West as they attempt to fend off the surging Houston Rockets for the 10th and final Play-In spot in the conference. Losing Green clearly isn’t going to help their cause, and Curry just couldn’t hide his emotions after that brutal and self-inflicted blow.
