Green signed with the 76ers over the offseason and has played in two of the team's first three games.  

The 36-year-old is in his 15th season in the NBA and has played for the Cleveland Cavaliers, Memphis Grizzlies, San Antonio Spurs, Toronto Raptors, Philadelphia 76ers and Los Angeles Lakers. 

His career averages are 8.7 points, 3.4 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 1.0 steals per contest while shooting 42.1% from the field and 40.0% from the three-point range in 832 regular season games.

In addition, Green has played in an astonishing 169 NBA playoff games and won three NBA Championships (with the Lakers, Raptors and Spurs).

Since he has so much experience (and is an excellent shooter), Green could end up being a good addition to many teams and will be a name to watch.
