NBA ROLE: ÜBER-ATHLETIC, GO-TO SCORER
A self-proclaimed* bucket, Jalen Green is a dazzling perimeter threat w/ a tremendous amount of pure ability & confidence; 2nd overall pick in 2021 - Green made the NBA leap after starring w/ G League Ignite; dynamic shot-maker - true scorer w/ 25+ ppg potential within a few years; variety of ways to get into his own shot - 3-4 go-to step backs (from downtown primarily) - behind the back, to the left or right or off a combo move (very bouncy off the dribble, gets enviable separation on most attempts; 1% athlete from the jump - utilizes leaping prowess to the highest degree: Green has unrivaled arc + elevation on his J, is liable to put anyone on a poster - thunderous, aerial dunker w/ flair (sig slam: leaning tomahawk) and a ridiculous vert; improving playmaker - next steps in development include further strides on the defensive end (adding strength is imperative), as well as an efficient mixture of creating for others & scoring on his own; gained valuable experience as a rook, gradually improved over the entire season; underrated backcourt duo (w/ FVV); Houston’s go-to, starting SG - nice upside alongside Jabari Smith Jr., Tari Eason & Alperen Sengun (among others); possesses a level of “star power” - super strong finish to the 2023-24 campaign - can Green become a legit, Top DOG in 2025?
