Outlook:
Jermaine Green is a scorer, defender, very athletic, high energy player. He can play almost any position on the court, at his best at the G/SF position, have however played the PF overseas. At the Shooting Guard, he creates big match-up problems, having the same speed as a normal SG, but the strength and height of a Forward. Can take the ball inside and score in the paint strong. Very aggressive and talented rebounder, will go after every possible rebound. Excellent in the open court, running the floor or leading the fast break. Likes to finish with a dunk. Can shoot three pointers pretty good with deep range, along with the medium-range jumper. Although he's a very talented offensive player, Jermaines' biggest qualities is found in his defensive game. He truly is a excellent shot blocker for his position, and he has the capability of locking down opposing star players from position 1-4. Always in the passing lane.
