Jalen Green can score from all over the floor, whether it is using his quickness to get to the rim or pulling up from 3-point range.
Green shot 36.5 percent from 3-point range in the G-League on a fairly high volume of 5.7 attempts per game. Unlike the guys coming out of college, Green did this from the NBA 3-point line against NBA defenders.

Hayes has shown himself to be a talented passer and playmaker, but the problem right now is that his teammates aren’t knocking down the shots.

Green could end up being one of the better shooters in this draft, which would not only open up more space for Hayes to operate, but would turn more of his passes into assists.
