THE SEASON SO FAR

Jeff Green’s early season was defined by extreme marginalization, reducing the aging forward to an erratic garbage-time cameo. When his legs were under him, he could still execute as a reliable spot-up threat. This was obvious on 11/01 vs BOS, when flawless perimeter shooting yielded 6 points and a +2.9 impact score. However, those brief flashes of veteran savvy were frequently swallowed by glaring athletic decline. During an eight-minute stint on 12/05 vs PHX, his lack of offensive aggression and slow defensive rotations resulted in a distinctly negative -4.5 impact. Even when gifted a season-high 15 minutes of run on 02/25 vs SAC, his box score production was entirely deceptive. He scored 5 points, but sluggish transition defense and a chronic failure to close out on shooters dragged his impact down to -0.9. Green is surviving purely on basketball IQ, but whenever his corner three isn't falling, the physical costs of putting him on the floor become impossible to ignore.

PATTERNS

Struggling. Green has posted negative impact in 97% of games this season. The production rarely outweighs the cost.

Flat trajectory all season — first-half impact -7.7, second-half -8.4. No major shifts, which fits with the overall steadiness.

In a rough stretch — 28 straight games with negative impact. Longest cold streak this season: 28 games.
