Gerald Green

While he may not be the quietest or soft-spoken guy on the court, it is really puzzling to see Gerald Green be a free agent. Over the years, teams have given up on Green and have not really been willing to give him a shot, which is really weird seeing as he is an insanely good athlete and scoring machine. 

Since entering the league in 2005, Gerald Green has been a member of 8 different organizations and everywhere he has gone, he has produced. Over the course of his career, Green has averaged 9.7 points, 2.5 rebounds and has shot 36.1% from three-point range. 

With him now being 35-years-old, Green is probably not the high-flying scoring machine he once was early on in his career, but if he was to play 10-15 minutes per game, there is no doubt in my mind that Green could still be very productive and knock down some big shots.

The best thing about Gerald Green is that he is a guy that can and always has created for himself. He can literally take anybody one-on-one and because of the type of athlete he is, Green tends to find a lot of success doing so. 

This kind of play style may not fit well with the Nuggets, especially with everything going through Nikola Jokic offensively, but Gerald Green has been a name that has popped up in rumors surrounding the Nuggets and their open roster spot. 

With no Gary Harris anymore and a need for a high-level scorer in the second-unit, Gerald Green could make a lot of sense for the Denver Nuggets.
