2012 Draft Profile - JaMychal Green

Green has been seen as a bit of an underachiever up to his senior year, and then there was a suspension, so the sample for Green is mediated by several factors. However, Green had an impactful PIT and now is on the radar as never before. Much like teammate Tony Mitchell, Green has a surplus of raw talent linked to a questionable history of effort,and lack of focus. What one saw at the PIT however was a slightly undersized four (much like Terrence Jones) who when he his "on" can really produce around the rim. Green when focused is actually a high energy and very tough inside player, with excellent elevation and nice hands. He is not an elite scorer by any means, but he is productive in his way. On defense he projects to have some issues because of size. However, like any number of NBA undersized fours, Green finds ways to contribute.He just bangs around and makes it happen. He does not have exceptional lateral quickness, but its good enough, and his instincts on defense seem pretty good. He seems like a talented kid who is just now figuring out the game. If he continues to apply himself he could most certainly carve out a role player niche (or more) at the pro level.
