Josh Green

Before training camp began, there was a feeling that Green could be the choice to start alongside Ball. A lot can change between now and Charlotte's season opener on October 23; this provides an early boost to Green's value in fantasy drafts. He had moments with the Mavericks, but Green's fantasy value was significantly capped. There should be more chances to achieve fantasy relevance with a rebuilding team. Also of note is Richards starting for Mark Williams, who remains sidelined due to injury.

After four seasons in Dallas, Green was sent to Charlotte as part of a six-team trade headlined by Klay Thompson. And the move may net him a consistent role, with Boone opining that Green will be the choice to start next to LaMelo Ball this season. Green made 33 starts in Dallas last season, averaging 9.6 points, 3.8 rebounds, 2.3 assists, and 0.9 steals in 30.1 minutes per game. Depending on the system run by new head coach Charles Lee, Green is one player who could benefit from an uptempo style, especially if Ball can stay healthy, and his defensive versatility will help the Hornets on the perimeter. He isn't a must-draft player, but Green is someone to watch in the latter rounds of drafts.
