Josh Green credits the noticeable improvement in his game around the basket to former NBA player Amir Johnson.
“This summer I worked with Amir Johnson a lot with finishing,” Green said after Tuesday’s practice. “He’s been working with the G League team out in Vegas and he had a big part in the (Toronto) Raptors’ success, and he’s been a big part of it and was an impact guy as well.”
Johnson, 35, played in the NBA from 2005-’19, including for the Raptors from ’09-’15.-’15. The 6-9, 253-pound forward also played for the NBA’s G League Ignite from 2020 through last season.
