In their last game this season, the matchup between the Phoenix Suns and the Golden State Warriors amplified their rivalry, making it a must-see game. Damion Lee was visibly upset with JaMychal Green late into the fourth quarter as the two had to be separated after the former shoved the big man.

Watch the sequence below between Lee and Green that almost escalated before they were separated by their respective teams.

Prior to the foul on Lee, the two were already heated on the other side of the court. They can be seen during the beginning of the clip arguing and getting in each other's faces. TJ Warren had to grab his teammate and pull him away from the Warriors' big man.

The Suns lost to the Warriors after a huge first half from Klay Thompson, which helped them build a huge lead. Thompson dropped 33 points in the first half and ended the game with 38 points. The five-time All-Star made eight threes during their game against Phoenix.

The Phoenix Suns are experiencing another hiccup after Kevin Durant injured himself during pre-game warmups last week. With his new injury, reports came in saying the All-Star forward will miss 2-3 weeks of action.

Their game against the Warriors is their second without Durant. It doesn't say much, yet. However, it's evident that the Suns are in need of another scorer other than Devin Booker. In tonight's game, Booker had 32 points, which would've been enough if he had help from others on the team.

Aside from the former Kentucky guard, Deander Ayton also had a huge night against the Warriors. He scored 27 points and grabbed 12 rebounds. Apart from the two young stars, no one contributed big-time to the team.

Phoenix needs Durant to return to the lineup for them to become legitimate contenders in the Western Conference. Without a secondary player who's capable of creating his own shots, the Suns could experience a ton of trouble. The organization and fans are hoping that KD can make a timely return to the court.
