No, Draymond Green ain’t pillow soft for having a heckler booted from an NBA game earlier this week … so says Michael Rapaport, who tells TMZ Sports the Warriors star was in the right in the situation.
Green had the courtside fan kicked out of Tuesday night’s Warriors vs. Bucks game in Milwaukee — claiming the man threatened his life during a trash-talking sesh.

The man has since said he did no such thing — but when we got Rapaport out this week … the comedian, who’s usually full of hot takes, said he was siding with Green in the spat.
Draymond Green Claims Ejected Fan Threatened His Life
“Even though Draymond Green is not, you know, you know,” Rapaport said out in NYC … “Fans are inappropriate sometimes. It’s a family-friendly event.”
Rapaport said fans need to treat games as if they were going to Disneyland — as in, behave themselves extra carefully — otherwise, they should be subjected to ejections.

Green, meanwhile, told reporters after the incident he was hopeful that the NBA and even politicians would get involved in making rules and regulations to prevent heckling going forward — a solution Rapaport is clearly in agreement with.
