2:19 PM ET

Draymond Green apologized publicly and said he would take a break from the team for a few days.

I was wrong for what I did. He apologized to the family of the person who died.

There's a lot of embarrassment that comes with this. The embarrassment that Jordan has to deal with and that this team has to deal with is something that this organization has to deal with. Also the family of Jordan. His family watched it. His parents watched that video. I know how my mother would react to that video.

Green apologized to the team before practice on Thursday and then left the facility and went home. Green will be back with the team for Saturday's practice after the general manager and coach said they didn't expect him to miss a game. Green took a different course of action after seeing the video of the incident.

According to sources, the Warriors are going to take every possible legal action to find the source of the leak. The league has been contacted by Golden State about how the video got out.

The altercation was caused by normal practice trash talk that got out of hand and didn't have anything to do with the contract negotiations.

His representation is in the process of negotiating with the Warriors, who are interested in extending his contract. Both parties are trying to get a new deal done by the deadline.

At the end of the season, Green has a player option. If it isn't picked up, Green will be a restricted free agent in four years. According to Green, he doesn't think the Warriors will reach an agreement this year.
