INDIANAPOLIS – If there is an NBA game to be played, the odds are very high that A.C. Green will show up for work and play in
that particularly game.
No matter if he was hurt, wasn’t feeling well, bruised or had his teeth knocked out, Green was hellbent on punching the time clock and putting in an honest day’s work. That’s why Green is considered as the NBA’s Iron Man.
In fact, from Nov. 19, 1986 until he retired from the NBA on April 18, 2001, Green played in 1,192 consecutive games.
