Jeff Green Might Just Play In The NBA Forever (KevinHFY on how Green turned career limbo into a beautiful career equilibrium and won a ring in the process)
The year is 2023, Jeff Green is 36 years old, and he just won an NBA championship as one of, let’s say, three bench players for his team that really factored into the NBA Finals. What?
At the time, Green was coming from the Boston Celtics after a solid if low-stakes tenure as one of their primary scorers. However, he was inefficient, a below-average 3-point shooter and didn’t have a history of playing plus defense. What those Grit-and-Grind Grizzlies needed, and never came across, was a consistent 3-and-D wing — so, more or less Green’s opposite. His Memphis tenure was short and often frustrating, and he was gone a year later at the 2016 deadline.
Since leaving the Grizzlies, Green has cycled through a new team almost every year until returning to the Nuggets for a second season this year. By all accounts, he’s been liked in every locker room he’s been in, and he’s probably been a positive, whatever his role, everywhere he’s gone — perhaps increasingly so.
