The Warriors won the series 4–1, advancing to the Western Conference Finals against the Oklahoma City Thunder. In Game 3, Green kicked Thunder center Steven Adams in the groin.

In Game 2 of the NBA Finals against the Cleveland Cavaliers, Green had 28 points with five three-pointers, seven rebounds and five assists to lead the Warriors to a 110–77 win and a 2–0 advantage in the series. Golden State went ahead 3–1 in Game 4, during which Green and LeBron James of Cleveland had to be separated. The two had gotten tangled in the closing minutes of the Warriors' 108–97 win. Green fell to the ground, and James stepped over him. Feeling disrespected, Green swung his arm and appeared to make contact with James' groin. After the game, Green was assessed a Flagrant 1 for contact that was ruled "unnecessary" and "retaliatory", and James was given a technical foul for taunting. Having accumulated his fourth flagrant foul point in the playoffs, Green was suspended for Game 5. The Warriors went on to lose the series in seven games despite a 32-point, 15-rebound and 9-assist effort from Green in Game 7.

During a team practice with the Warriors on October 5, 2022, Green and teammate Jordan Poole got into an altercation, resulting in Green striking Poole in the face. TMZ published a leaked video on October 7, showing the punch but not what led to the incident. On October 9, Green publicly apologized for the incident and announced that he would spend a few days away from the team. The Warriors fined Green for the altercation.

On April 18, Green was suspended for one game for stomping on the chest of Domantas Sabonis in a playoff game against the Sacramento Kings. The Warriors were eliminated in the second round of the playoffs by the Lakers. After the season, Kerr said Golden State was not a championship team due to a lack of trust on the team, in part due to Green's punching Poole, and Green blamed their early playoff exit on his punch. Green declined his $27.6 million player option and became a free agent. On July 8, 2023, he re-signed with the Warriors.

On March 7, 2024, Green recorded his 32nd career triple-double with 11 points, 10 rebounds and 12 assists in a 122–125 loss to the Chicago Bulls.

He became the first player in NBA history to record a double-double without taking any field goal attempts.
