The Olympics will be good for him, but I will be surprised if he gets much time. The Australia team is a deep team and looking at the games leading up the Olympics, Green got very few minutes when the full team was available and the game was competitive.
My lofty expectations for Green is Mikal Bridges. They are different body styles, but I envision Green playing similar to Bridges. As in guys who don't demand the ball but just do winning things on the court. Bridges came out after his Jr year and took a few years to really settle into his role. Green needs to shoot it better, but I think Bridges are the type of player we hope Green turns into.
However, I still feel like Maxey has more upside than Green. Lets wait to see if that is correct.
