Probably the best write-up I've seen of Green so far and provides some insights into why the Mavs selected him:

https://hashtagbasketball.com/nba-dr...out-josh-green

[PPP = points per possession]


HIGHLIGHTS
-1.19 PPP transition scoring (78th percentile)
-1.023 PPP spotting up (78th percentile)
-1.203 PPP shooting off the catch (85th percentile)
-1.512 PPP open catch and shoot (94th percentile)

LOWLIGHTS
-.786 PPP scoring at the rim (8th percentile)
-.808 PPP cutting to the basket (9th percentile)
-.424 PPP shooting off the dribble (9th percentile)

DEFENSE
-allowed .429 PPP on jumpers in isolation
-allowed .684 PPP when defending the pick-and-roll
-allowed .462 PPP on mid-range jumpers
-allowed .923 PPP on three-pointers


This paints a pretty clear picture. Green (much like another Green we all know) probably isn't ever going to be great creating his own offense -- especially in a half-court set. What Green will do is bring athleticism, defense, and corner shooting. He was very much a selection that was made for Luka. His open catch-and-shoot game is very enticing considering the looks Luka gets our guys.


Website had Green as the 12th best prospect.
