Golden State Warriors: 3 low-cost, high-quality 2020 NBA Free Agents
By Tony Pesta
3. Jeff Green
There is a reason Jeff Green has been signed by multiple playoff teams over the last few seasons. Since 2018, Green has suited up for the Cleveland Cavaliers, Utah Jazz and Houston Rockets.
Each team understood Green’s worth as a quality veteran with sound athleticism. Though he is entering his mid-30s, Green continues to be a strong jumper and moderately quick forward.
Green is capable of doing a lot on the floor. He is averaging 10.4 points, 3.2 rebounds and 1.2 assists for the Rockets in just 20.1 minutes of playing time. He has been reliable from each spot on the floor, shooting 62.1 percent from the field and over 40 percent from the 3-point line.
Before signing a 10-day contract with Houston, Green was on a minimum one-year deal with the Jazz. It seems likely he would be open to taking on a similar deal with the Warriors if it means having another chance to compete for a title.
