He now returns to Chapel Hill for what will be his final collegiate season, where he will look to secure himself a selection in the NBA Draft. Green brings a pretty vast array of skills in terms of scoring the basketball. He is a nice catch and shoot player, seemingly putting himself in the open area all of the time. Perfectly comfortable going both left and right, he usually opts to finish his drives with a floater or a pull-up jumper, rather than going to all the way to the rim.
The senior has also proven to be an average ball handler, showing off some pretty crafty moves when moving towards the basket, but unable to create his own shot from the perimeter with any type of advanced moves. As a playmaker, Danny has also shown nice court vision both in transition and in the half court set in terms of finding the open man, even if he clearly has a tendency to force the issue at times. With advanced scouting at the NBA level, this could be a problematic issue for this swingman next season.

In the scrimmages, Green really impressed, getting after it on both sides of the ball, while his hot shooting extended over from the drills as well. He hit a plethora of spot-up and pull-up threes from college three-point range, with a few from NBA three-point range as well. Many of the pull-up shots came when he got some space coming around a high screen, but he also hit a few with a hand in his face and incorporated crossovers, step-backs, and fade-aways into his shots, sometimes in combination, hitting quite a few high difficulty shots off advanced moves.
In the two scrimmages to 11, he took his man to the basket a handful of times at most, with limited success. Green also looked good as a passer in the two-man game, mixing it up with backdoor and alley-oop assists, making good reads throughout the scrimmages. On the defensive end, Green really stood out, blanketing Foster the whole time, contesting all of his perimeter shots, and making a few nice blocks with his length and timing in the lane.
