Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green has had his suspension lifted by the NBA after missing 12 games.
Green was banned indefinitely for striking Phoenix Suns player Jusuf Nurkic in the face during the Warriors’ 119-116 defeat in December.
The incident was the third time the 33-year-old had been ejected this season.
He was given a five-game ban for putting Minnesota Timberwolves centre Rudy Gobert in a headlock on 14 November.
The forward was also ejected for two technical fouls against the Cleveland Cavaliers earlier in November and was suspended during the play-offs in April after stamping on Sacramento Kings player Domantas Sabonis.
