Golden State Warriors power forward Draymond Green has been suspended indefinitely by the NBA due to an incident on Tuesday where he struck Phoenix Suns centre Jusuf Nurkic.

Green was immediately assessed a flagrant-2 foul and ejected from the game, which the Suns ultimately won.

The 33-year-old’s suspension for the incident will begin immediately and the league has stated that the Warriors forward will be required to meet certain league and team conditions before he returns to play.

Meanwhile, the Warriors are struggling to stay competitive this season and are ranked 11th in the Western Conference with a 10-13 record and missing Green's defense and playmaking could hurt them significantly.

The Warriors will face the Los Angeles Clippers at 3.30pm today.
