Which version of JaMychal Green will the Warriors get? Golden State is hoping for the 2020-21 iteration. sfchronicle.com/sports/warrior…1:22 PM

Was away for my wife’s birthday, but the JaMychal Green addition sure looks like a great one. Has spent his whole career in the West, the Warriors are well familiar with him and can bank on him being the shooter he has been in the past over last season – 12:55 PM

Take a deeper look, and it’s clear JaMychal Green’s down year last season was not entirely his fault. There were a lot of factors that contributed to it. To me, Green’s a great addition on a minimum. There’s reason to believe he can be similar to what he was in 2020-21. – 6:50 PM

More on this storyline

 

Green has had fans within the Warriors’ front office, locker room and coaching staff for years. Much of that affection spawned during the 2019 first-round series, when he repeatedly burned a collapsing scheme. -via The Athletic / July 20, 2022
But his high-end value as a role player will always be defined by his 3-point percentage. Just look at his contract numbers. Green made 39.6 percent of his 3s during his last season with Memphis, which cemented his spot in the league and earned him a career-best payday with the Clippers. He shot 38.7 and 39.9 percent from 3 the next two seasons, earning him deals upwards of the taxpayer midlevel. But he hit a steep dip this past season and, because of it, has fallen back to the veteran-minimum range, where the Warriors hope they’ve unearthed another one-season steal in the Porter mold. -via The Athletic / July 20, 2022
Monte Poole: JaMychal Green has long had fans among Warriors coaching staff and front office. Same can’t said of at least two ‘big’ forwards available on the FA market. -via Twitter @MontePooleNBCS / July 19, 2022
