Provided a legit interior presence for his team on both ends of the floor, especially on day one. He understands how to use his size to his advantage and is a very gifted passer out of the post.

It’s always refreshing to see a post player that looks comfortable playing inside the paint, and he seems to make the correct play the majority of the time from the post. He scored whenever he had the matchup advantage but made some impressive passes out of the post to setup teammates for easy scores.

Green played for
Team Wall
this weekend, and the moment I knew he had the tools to play at the next level was when he fired off a smooth pick and pop three and hit nothing but nylon from the top of the key. The kid has real deal tools and can control the game from the post. He’s a big fella but I didn’t feel like he couldn’t run the floor or stay in the game, as he hustled and looked to make winning plays outside of just scoring the ball. He attacked the offensive glass and moved people out of the way well. Inside, he’s got solid moves that still have room for growth, but finishes layups well.

Last season he played a solid role for the 71st Falcons as they made a run for the state championship, but he has made the decision to reclassify to 2024 and make the move over to Fayetteville Academy. He will look to rejoin the squad mid-season after he fully recovers from injury and the extra year should only help him as an overall prospect.

His season will begin with him on the bench as he is rehabbing a knee injury but when he’s healthy, he’s a player that is on the radar of college coaches. He has legit size at 6’7/6’8 and can make plays on both ends of the floor in the paint. His next step will be to get in top shape which should only help to decrease potential injuries to his lower body.
