Jeff Green

Bio

There would be no big things without the little things. The problem is, people usually never notice them. But that's just fine for Jeff Green. He's sees everything that can be found in the details. Like making the extra pass. Or diving on the floor. Or boxing out. Or even making sure you have one foot on the out-of-bounds line while trapping someone in the corner. You know, all the things they don't have stats for. And he's okay with that. That's who he is. And playing with Kevin Durant, someone who handles the big things, makes them a perfect combo. Because it doesn't matter which one of them puts the big stats up. As long as there's a win attached to it.
