Chicago Bulls Trade Deadline Addition: Javonte Green

Green, 27, is a two-year NBA veteran from Radford. He has played up-and-down between the NBA and the G-league and was part of the three-team trade with Theis to come to the Bulls for Daniel Gafford and Chandler Hutchison.

Green is another bench player that adds aggression as a slasher. He is 6-foot-4 and he can score around the rim, shooting a career 70.5 percent within three feet of the rim. He mostly does his work in the paint, or from behind the arc, but hardly from mid-range.

He can shoot the three and can get the occasional hot hand from different areas from three. But, he is a better attacker and uses his body well to put up shots. His free throw rate this season is an astounding 42.3 percent, proving the fact that he can get to the free-throw line, which the Bulls are the worst at in the NBA.

Green also carries a positive defensive box plus/minus in his career and a decent career defensive rating of 107. Again, like most of the trade assets the Bulls acquired, he can play solid defense off the bench. He will be a solid two-guard that could see action in the farm too.
