NBA ROLE: HEAT CHECK SCORER

 

One of the most mystifying leapers in league history, Gerald Green is an athletic hotshot who knows his role & plays it well; Green provides instant offense, makes his living as a flame-on scorer off the pine; takes (& makes) "superstar" shots – no matter the situation, Gerald has the ultimate green light in his mind’s eye; volume scorer but can provide half (or more) your bench’s production some nights – if that leaning fadeaway is falling, points come naturally; primarily scores via deep jumpers, should drive the ball a bit more; in terms of raw athleticism, ranks in the top percentile all-time*; thrives under the right situation (& coach) – perfect fit w/ Rockets: playing in his hometown, stylistic match in Houston
