The feud between Draymond Green and Tristan Thompson is apparently far from settled.
According to Jason McIntyre of Fox Sports, the two got into a skirmish outside of a Los Angeles club two weeks ago at a post-ESPY’s party. Thompson reportedly hit Green with a “two-piece” after the Warriors forward attempted to apologize for not shaking Thompson’s hand at the end of Game 4 of the NBA Finals. Thompson wasn’t having it, and after Green persisted, Thompson punched him.
LeBron James and Kevin Durant reportedly broke up the fight, with James leaving the party shortly after.
Finally this story is out there and I can say what I’ve heard about Tristan Thompson punching Draymond Green 2 weeks ago

Draymond went up to apologize to Tristan for what happened after G4 of the finals. TT said ‘nah man’ and Draymond tried again, ‘come on, I didn’t mean it’ and then WHAP, Tristan leveled him with a punch. Draymond didn’t go down.

Draymond Green was not the aggressor, he was trying to make peace. Tristan felt embarrassed by the end of the Finals diss moment and just unloaded. Couple players i spoke here in LA/on social media went with, "about time"

The issues between the two started during Game 1 of June’s NBA Finals when Green and Thompson got into an altercation at the end of the game, that involved Thompson pushing the ball into Green’s face, and then gesturing that he wanted to fight Draymond after the game.

The feud continued after Game 4, when Green refused to shake Thompson’s hand following the conclusion of the series, and then explained why during the Warriors’ championship parade.
