He went from 45.2% from the field and 16% from deep in his first season to 50.8% from the field and 35.9% from deep this last season. So he soiled the bed in the playoffs, so did Brunson the year before. He's got a lot more offensive upside than Frank the Clank, who has yet to shoot 40% from the field after 5 seasons. If you're patient Green might actually turn into one of those coveted two way guys
Green is 21. DFS shot 37.2% from the field and 29.3% from deep when he was 23, but he made slight improvements in each and every season after that. I'm willing to be patient with Green because he showed offseason improvement which shows his future trajectory is heading the right way
Im a casual and Green does not pass the eye test offensively.
He just doesnt process the offensive side of the game anywhere close to NBA caliber. IMO, he might be the worst guard/wing player in the league offensively. Its that bad.
Now...I know nothing about roster management nor do I know anything about roster management of a contender...so maybe Green is kept. I assume he is on a short leash, though.
Kid should be in the gym right now shooting 3's.
