Late in the fourth quarter of the Golden State Warriors' 137-114 blowout win over Minnesota on Sunday, a new Draymond Green meme was born. Timberwolves All-Star big man Karl-Anthony Towns tried to take Kevon Looney one-on-one off the dribble. Towns lost control of the ball and proceeded to throw it off of Green.

Towns immediately got the ball back and handed it off to fellow All-Star big man Rudy Gobert. Gobert then did a spin move on Looney and tried to score in the post before falling and turning the ball over.

The play resulted in a transition three for Klay Thompson. However, on the other end of the court, Draymond Green took the opportunity to mock the fallen Rudy Gobert. Green looked down at Gobert and laughed. The humorous moment quickly went viral on NBA Twitter.

“Nah this is disrespectful why is dray laughing at Rudy gobert 😭😂,” the original tweet was captioned.
“He really hate him bruh,” one fan initially reacted.

Some fans took the opportunity to criticize Gobert while he was down, highlighting that the big man has no offensive skill.

Here are some of the other best reactions to the viral moment:

“He is 🗑️🗑️🗑️🗑️ I been saying this for years no the finally see he’s a 7 foot 💩 terd no moves can’t shoot just set picks and roll shid I can do that,” one fan said.

“‘You too big to always be down there’ 🤣,” another fan joked.

“Dray needs to tell him to give those DPOY’s back 😂,” another joked.

Meanwhile, other fans took some shots at Draymond Green for constantly talking trash despite not being one of his team’s primary scoring options.

“Draymond talking shit again? Curry and Klay must be on fire or something,” one fan fired back.
“Because it was 2019 the last time Draymond scored that much,” another said.

Other fans were just confused about how Gobert hasn’t stood up for himself yet. Some even felt bad for him.

“How has Rudy not fought him yet lol,” one fan joked.
“Aww that's not right. Rudy ain't do anything to deserve that. Yes, Draymond has his number. I feel bad for Rudy,” another said.

However, most reactions were pretty neutral, with fans just finding the whole sequence highly entertaining.

“Dray be funny asf bruh it goes unnoticed cause how unliked he is 🤣🤣,” one fan said.
“Dray laughing Maniacally 😂👹, Love to see it,” another fan said.
“Another day another meme 😄,” another added.

Shortly after his viral moment with Gobert, Green got a technical for celebrating on the court, following a basket from teammate Jordan Poole.

Draymond Green later voiced his frustrations with the seemingly unnecessary tech during his postgame interview.

"I thought I was standing in the corner, so I don't know. Sucks though. It's the NBA man, Green said.
“Your teammates make a good move. I didn't affect the play, like, there's no one near me. Sucks. And the fact that that's going to count, come on,” Green continued.

Luckily for Golden State, the technical foul came late in the fourth, with the Warriors up 21. They are now above .500 at 11-10. This comes after their concerning 3-7 start to the season. It looks like the defending champions have put their early-season struggles behind them.
