You know he had to do it one time lol #retirement
role player HOF. I will cherish his 3 games on the Grizzlies
From a LeBron sideline dancer to a near FMVP to an invaluable 3&D guy
Great career from a 46th pick
I thought he retired years ago after Embiid injured him from a flop
Rest easy Icy-Hot. You were almost one made free throw/one missed Ray Allen shot away from a finals mvp
It is crazy impressive how important DG was to 3 different championship teams. Him being a starting player on 2 straight championship teams in 19/20 is underrated. He is the epitome of the 3-D Archetype. He is one of the reasons so many 3-D players got big contracts in the mid-late 2010s.
I would argue that the 2011 Mavs was the team that first highlighted the importance of having 3-D players with guys like DeShawn Stephenson and to a lesser extent Shawn Marion but I don’t think teams realized the importance of the 3 point shot until the 2014 Spurs and the ascension of the Splash bros.
Bro had his career cut short-er because Embiid doesnt know how to control his body.
Can I sue Joel Embiid for fucking up his knee and not letting him make more money
Anyone know the other players? Horry is one of them I think.
damn had a nice jumpshot
Enjoy retirement bro, congrats on a great career and getting 3 rings.
Cue at least 3 “is Danny Green a HOFer?” posts that include accolades like 1x MIP top-10 and 3 point shootout participant
He had an amazing career!
One of the best role players!
This man has had an illustrious career. Always got mad love for him.
Enjoy retirement, Danny. He’s probably gonna go into broadcasting.
Lakers fans were unfortunately very toxic towards him, but he was pretty damned vital to our championship run.
Casino Morongo looking for a respectable greeter since Ernie Shavers died
Every team could use a Danny Green
Tar Heel triple. Green ranger. Icy hot. I love Danny Green.
Loved him when he was in the raptors. Made me a fan for life.
Danny Green rocks. Raptor for life.
UNC legend and one of the best 3D players ever. Enjoy your retirement! You had a wonderful career.
The last of the players my age has retired. Time is flying too fast.
For a moment in time it seemed certain he was about to win a Finals MVP
is there a case for him to be in the HOF?
You know he had to do it one time🔥🔥🔥🔥
Insane career, remember watching him at UNC and I never would’ve guessed he would’ve stuck in the NBA after his first contract let alone be a huge part of contending teams for like 10 years straight.
Full list of players to win championships with three different teams:
Lebron James (Heat, Cavs, Lakers)
Danny Green (Spurs, Raptors, Lakers)
Robert Horry (Rockets, Lakers, Spurs)
John Salley (Pistons, Bulls, Lakers)
I’ll miss watching his transition defense
one of the better pro careers to come out of unc recently, well done danny
Long Island Legend
Great career all around. hope he has a nice retirement
Who are the other three? Lebron, Horry, and who else?
Danny Green Kawhi Leonard duo is underrated as a duo. Guaranteed success, lock down the wing and score 50+.
So much for “announcing” it on his podcast lol
Thank you for helping Kawhis transition to Toronto 🙏🏽
Forever the best “other guy” in the trade.
Him and KCP are the same player haha
Still one of the most incredible highlights in recent memory: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0qIc37R9f3s
So many great reactions, including Kobe shortly before his passing.
The streakiest 40% three point shooter of all time
Thank you Danny. 2014 I’ll never forget, being on r/nba in 2014 was like a different world than now
I was just thinking about how great it would be to have him as a coach on this Raptors team. He really helped OG being his shooting around.
Crazy that the raptors gave away derozan for green and kawhi, 2 guys both better than him lmao
While he won’t make the hall of fame (and shouldn’t), he impacted winning more than several hall of famers
Thought he already retired lol apparently he played 18 minutes last year. Only 11 games in 2023.
We’re running out of players who were in College Hoops 2K8.
The quintessential 3 and D player.
Thunder legend, Danny Green 🫡
