SG Gerald Green
6'8'' 195 lbs.
Gulf Shores Academy (Charter School in Houston, TX)
19 years old
Draft Ratings: B C+ D+ C C A

Strengths:
- Top notch athleticism, even for NBA standards.
- Dynamic offensive player, solid stroke from beyond the arc
- Great finisher in the paint.
- Very long for a Shooting Guard, could easily play SF if he gains some weight.
- Solid rebounder, uses his jumping ability to his advantage.
- Great room for improvement. #1 High School Prospect.

Cons:
- Lazy on the defensive side of the ball.
- Relies a lot on pure athleticism, needs work on fundamentals.
- Didn't play on HS school team until he was a Sophomore. Didn't join varsity until he was a Junior. Very raw.
- Discipline is a problem, had to repeat his Junior year due to poor academic standing.
- Boom or bust. He'll either be real good or real bad, not a risk teams early in the draft are willing to take.

Outlook:
The sky is the limit for this Gerald. He's widely regarded as the best High School prospect as it's easy to see why. He was the leading scorer in the McDonalds game and won the dunk contest, showing why he was the best among the best. His character is a big concern, he's probably not the most dedicated player, but there's always a GM whose willing to take a risk with someone. There's no doubt he has the tools to become a star, but he's going to have to dedicate himself if he wants to improve his outside game. He'll probably never be a great defender. He'll get picked mainly for his potential offensively. He'll probably get picked anywhere from late lotto to early 20's.

Projected Prime Ratings: B+ B C- B- C

If there was a player I ever hated it's Green. Sad part is it was never his fault. The pure disrespect Celtic fans had shown towards Pierce because people actually thought he (Green) would be the next T-Mac was sickening. People actually believed Pierce was stunting his growth lol FOH Pierce was our only stud for years and fans wanted him gone so we could give a clumsy, no BB IQ (hate this term but Green fits the bill trust me) wing player starters minutes. I won't front I was on the wagon of Green being a beast but I never advocated for Pierce to be traded because of him.

Real sick, brawl nights, I perform like Julius
