Erick Green

A second-round pick of the Nuggets in 2013, Green spent the entirety of last season playing overseas in Italy. He appeared in 44 Italian League games, averaging 11.2 points, 1.8 assists and 2.0 rebounds while shooting an impressive 51 percent from the field. A true volume scorer, Green led the ACC in scoring during his senior year at Virginia Tech, pouring in 25.0 points per game. He translated that success to the 2014 Las Vegas Summer League, where he averaged 16.6 points, 3.0 rebounds, and 2.6 assists. At 6-3, he's a bit undersized for the shooting guard spot and could see reserve minutes at point guard as a result. He won't play a major role right away, but with Nate Robinson likely to miss time at the beginning of the season as he recovers from knee surgery, Green could steal some minutes as the backup to Ty Lawson.
