It didn't take long for players, fans and the rest of the NBA world to react to Draymond Green's early ejection in the Warriors' gritty 101-93 win over the Orlando Magic on Wednesday night at Kia Center.

But no reaction spoke louder than that of Steph Curry.

Cameras caught Curry visibly distraught before hiding his face in his jersey, and several photos circulating online show the two-time NBA MVP holding back tears.

After the game, Warriors coach Steve Kerr said Curry was emotional "because our team needed the win."

Green was ejected less than four minutes into the contest after receiving back-to-back technicals for arguing a foul call with official Ray Acosta.
