UNC Basketball: Danny Green’s big game helps fuel Lakers to win

Former University of North Carolina standout and current Los Angeles Lakers shooting guard Danny Green put together one of his best performances of the season on Friday night.

The 11-year NBA veteran scored 25 points on 9-of-14 shooting from the floor, and 6-of-10 from three-point range. Green’s nine makes were his second-most in a game this season, and it was the third time in the last three months that he’s connected on six or more three-pointers in a game. Not only that, Green added five rebounds, five assists, and two steals in 33 minutes of play. He didn’t commit a single turnover, and had a game-high plus-27 plus/minus.
