I think I can bring that dog mentality, that defensive mindset and an exciting part at the same time. They already got a lot of star players, a lot of excitement on the team. I think they&#x27;re just missing one more piece and I think I can fulfill that,&quot; ani Green. </p><p>Naglaro si Green sa G-League Ignite kung saan nag-average siya ng 18 points per game, at agad na nagpakitang-gilas sa mga scout kaya siya nalagay sa Top 5 ng draft. </p><div><strong>-- Ulat ni TJ Manotoc, ABS-CBN News</strong></div>
