Josh Green on trade to Charlotte: I got another phone call at like 3:00 in the morning and then my agent told me he's like ‘you're going to Charlotte’. Boom. Whole phone starts blowing up and it starts going off and honestly like it just I wasn't really expecting it to be honest with you, and I think like for it to happen like it happened in the middle of the night, you're still tired, so you're like is this actually happening? Honestly it was just like that feeling of not being able to run it back with the guys. That was hard.

Josh Green was drafted by the Mavericks and was part of their Finals run, spending his first four years with Doncic before being traded this offseason. He thought the conditioning criticism was overblown as well. "At the end of the day, he’s played World Cups, he’s played Olympics, back-to-back-to-back years. You have to be in pretty good shape to be able to play that," Green told Sporting News. Green felt that Doncic had grown considerably over his time in Dallas. "I think for someone to be 24 years old and be able to take a team to the Finals, it’s impressive. The last two years, he took a big leap being a leader. The guys really followed that."
