Longtime Miami Heat player and executive Udonis Haslem has responded to Draymond Green’s comments about his role in Bam Adebayo allegedly punching Tyler Herro. Haslem called Green a ‘sucka’ while also calling him out for infamously punching his own teammate Jordan Poole.
Over the weekend, it was reported that Bam Adebayo punched former teammate Tyler Herro — who was traded to the Milwaukee Bucks in the Miami Heat’s acquisition of Giannis Antetokounmpo — Friday morning in Las Vegas at a gym at the Resorts World Casino.
According to The Athletic, the altercation — which took place in front of Herro’s AAU team — stemmed from “a back-and-forth between a fan account and an account allegedly connected to Herro.”
On his podcast, Draymond Green weighed in by using it to paint Haslem in a negative light — Haslem was teammates with both Adebayo and Herro before his retirement in 2023 and is now the Heat’s vice president of basketball development.
“So, when I first saw this, I was like, ‘Damn. This is two young guys Udonis Haslem raised,'” Green said.
“If you raised this young guy in the light of what you was saying about me, and now he punches this other young guy that y’all kind of co-raised, are you going to have that same energy?”
Haslem responded in a lengthy post on social media, telling Green he’s on “sucka s—,” just like he was when he punched Jordan Poole.
“@Money23Green I see some things just don’t change. lol. You was on sucka s— four years ago when you swung on Jordan Poole and you on sucka s— now. I usually don’t engage but since you went so far left to get my attention here it is!!!” Haslem wrote.
“If you think your big 32 year old, 3 or 4 rings at the time having a– swinging on a 23 year old Jordan Poole at the time is the same then you are even more delusional that I thought.”
“Ion really vibe you and I think you know that so unless it’s me on prime talking hoops I won’t mention you at all. You brought me into this and I am retired and out the way. I suggest you keep it pushing cause I ain’t giving out no more hall passes bra!”
@Money23Green I see some things just don’t change. lol. You was on sucka shit four years ago when you swung on Jordan Poole and you on sucka shit now. I usually don’t engage but since you went so far left to get my attention here it is!!!
If you think your big 32 year old, 3 or…
