Danny Green Drains Five Threes
Danny Green caught fire from beyond the arc in Tuesday's 106-96 win over Boston. Green drained 5 of 6 attempts from deep for 15 of his 17 points, adding two rebounds, two steals, and an assist in just 24 minutes of action. This was a nice performance to see, as Green had scored in double figures just once in his previous three games. The veteran sharpshooter is probably more of a matchup-based DFS play at this point in his career, though he can certainly be productive in that format. Friday's matchup against the Pelicans is one to target. They've allowed the fourth-most made three-pointers to small forwards.

Danny Green Nearing Agreement With Cleveland
Danny Green is nearing a deal with the Cavaliers. The veteran, who was recently acquired and bought out by the Rockets, played only three games for the Grizzlies after missing the start of the season recovering from a torn ACL and LCL in his left knee. With that said, although Green has shot at least 37.5% from deep in each of his last five seasons, his best days are behind him. As a result, he's not expected to offer much on the fantasy end, so he should remain off rosters until he gets more involved.

Danny Green Joining The Rockets
Danny Green from Memphis as part of a three-team deal involving the Clippers. Green's career with the Grizzlies ended after only three appearances, missing most of the season while recovering from a torn ACL and LCL in his left knee suffered during a postseason game in May 2022. However, with the veteran on a hefty expiring contract, he could receive a buyout from the Rockets. As a result, it's hard to say for sure what his fantasy outlook will be moving ahead. Yet, he's shot nearly 40% from deep throughout his career, so he should at least continue contributing in that area for category managers needing a boost.

Danny Green Won't Play On Thursday
Danny Green (knee) will be kept out of Thursday's meeting with the Cavaliers. He made his season debut on Wednesday versus Portland and will sit Thursday night due to left knee surgery injury management. Green played a pretty productive 10 minutes against the Trail Blazers, picking up three points, four rebounds, one assist and one steal. He'll provide an extra option off the bench for the team and brings plenty of experience, but Green isn't going to make a big impact in fantasy basketball unless Memphis suffers a raft of injuries.

Danny Green Expected To Make Season Debut Wednesday
Danny Green (knee) is expected to get some minutes in Wednesday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. Green will make his season debut and will likely face some heavy minutes restrictions as the Grizzlies ease him back into action. Green was not the most fantasy-friendly player before the injury, but was always a good source of threes and defensive stats when healthy. If he is able to shake off the minutes restrictions, Green could carve himself into a productive role for Memphis.
