Danny Green, San Antonio Spurs, shooting guard, #14

Former Tar Heel Danny Green has had a quiet season for the Spurs so far this season and in November, he averaged just eight points, 3.5 rebounds and 2.5 assists. He shot 46.9% from the field, 43.5% from three-point range and 80% from the free throw line.

However, Green plays an important part for San Antonio as one of the best defenders and shooters on the Spurs’ roster. Although Kawai Leonard and LaMarcus Aldridge are the primary scoring options, Green’s role is equally important.

Below, Green does a “Marcus Paige” impression with an acrobatic three-point field goal. Tarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr…
