podcast<\/a> with former NBA guard Baron Davis, Green spoke about some Timberwolves fans saying racist things toward him.<\/p>\n“But as far as the fans go, listen, I don\u2019t give it too much thought,” Green said. “I deal with fans a lot. That\u2019s just the nature of being who I am. I don\u2019t get off into it. There were some racist things said in Minnesota. I also don\u2019t like giving these nobodies moments to feel like they\u2019re somebody, you know what I\u2019m saying?<\/p>\n
“So yeah, there were some racist things said. It ain\u2019t the first time. You get in these environments and racist things are said. And I\u2019ma tell you what it is: fans are privileged. They are privileged. And when I say that, I mean they can pretty much say whatever they want, no boundaries. And if we say something back, we get in trouble. We lose money. We get fined. All the punishment comes to us.”<\/p>\n
