Mike Green

Green was covered in the Sixers summer league roster round-up from last week. He did not play well for them, however, averaging only 5.0 points, 1.8 assists and 1.8 steals per game, while turning it over three times a game and shooting only 27% from the field. He was aggressive and got to the foul line, but forced the issue and did not put on a good showing.

Before Shelvin Mack came Mike Green, a player who transferred to Butler from the less-than-mighty Towson State, and vaulted his way into the NBA's spotlight. Green is good at most things, even rebounding well for a 6'1 guard (to the tune of 4.3 in 31mpg last year); this year, playing for Liege in Belgium, Green was 9th in the league in scoring and 6th in assists, leading Liege to the D1 Finals. However, his outside jumpshot, always a concern, reared its ugly head again; Green shot only 30% from three point range, and shot only 31% from there in Turkey in 2008/09. Were it not for that, he'd probably have made an NBA roster by now.

Regular summer league starlet and Butler graduate Mike Green is in Belgium, stuffing the statsheet in that way that he does. He is averaging 15.3 points, 4.4 rebounds, 4.0 assists and 2.0 steals for Liege, the current Belgian league leaders. The points rank 6th in the league, the assists 4th, and the steals also 6th. Green is shooting only 25% from three point range, but everything else is all there.
