Earlier this month, the Detroit Pistons signed Javonte Green to a one-year deal. New details have now emerged about the nature of that agreement.
According to Michael Scotto of HoopsHype, the former Boston Celtics wing's deal is partially guaranteed for $925,000. The total value of his contract is $2.9 million. As a six-year veteran who signed for the veteran minimum, Green will only carry a cap hit of $2.3 million.
Lowering the cap hit for players with at least three years of experience who sign for the veteran minimum is a way to incentivize teams to opt for older players in free agency.
