Lakers News: Danny Green Compares Playing With 2009 And 2019 LeBron James

Danny Green was the No. 46 pick in the 2009 NBA Draft and since then, he’s won two championships and has found himself on another championship-level team with LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers.

During the 2019-20 NBA season, James has been one of the clear cut best players in the league but when Green was a rookie, that statement was still true.

In 2009, James was two seasons off his first NBA Finals appearance and was leading a weak Cleveland Cavaliers team to the Eastern Conference Finals where they lost to Dwight Howard and Orlando Magic, who eventually went on to lose to the Lakers in the NBA Finals.
